Default FS: Drake Equipment


Drake R-4A and T-4X, AC-4, MS-4. The receiver has some of the VE3EFJ
mods, the transmitter is unmodified. A list of the mods follows:

1. New power supply filter capacitors mounted underneath chassis,
original filter cans left in place on top.

2. Regulated +10V power supply replaces tube regulator. All original
components left in place. (Receiver runs much cooler as a result of this
modification.)

3. Audio power amplifier has been replaced by a solid state (TDA 2611)
PA module. Again, the original tube and components are still there.

The VE3EFJ mods are well-documented. I have a copy of them that I can
include with the manuals.

The receiver has a full complement of JAN crystals (purchased in 1997)
for the following bands:

1.5 - 2.0 MHz
4.5 - 5.0 MHz
9.5 - 10.0 MHz
14.5 - 15.0 MHz
18.0 - 18.5 MHz
24.5 - 25.0 MHz
28.0 - 28.5 MHz
29.0 - 29.5 MHz

I have photographs that I can e-mail to you showing the mods, cabinet
condition, etc.

All interconnect cables included.

Both manuals, original, in very good condition. (Photo available on
request.)

In addition, I purchased a number of new Drake parts during the Drake
liquidation sale a few years ago, which are included in the deal. These
mainly consist of IF cans, switches, a 5945 kHz crystal, spare PC
boards, etc.

I also have four spare 6JB6 tubes in original boxes that are part of the
package.

To sweeten the deal, I will include a (fair condition) Shure 444
microphone with the difficult-to-find right-angle Drake-sized mic
connector.

I am in the Los Angeles area and would really prefer to sell to somebody
local. I am willing to deliver within a 100-mile radius.

Price: $300.00.


Thank you for reading. Please feel free to reach me by e-mail, or by
