Suzy, if you see a Revex W560 going on VKHAM for $100 or so, it is a
good buy. It has HF to 70cm (two independent couplers, ie four coax
connectors), and works pretty well.

N type on the VHF/UHF coupler, UHF type on the other coupler.

For a dummy load, the market was flooded with terminations from 25W
to about 60W that had been scrapped from AMPS base station equipment,
and they were sold at hamfests for $20 or so, you may find them if
you look around.

N type.

Thanks Owen. BTW, what type of coax connector? Not PAL surely!

No, but they are not all that bad. Almost no one manufactured VHF land
mobiles here with UHF connectors, but they did use PAL (Belling & Lee)
once (Pye Reporters for instance).
