Hammarlund HQ-100 & Speaker
 

The college has been using this receiver for a number of years as an
"introduction to radios that used to glow in the dark" for the new members
of the campus ham club. The campus is "going green" and we are putting this
venerable old boatanchor up for grabs so that we can afford to get a solid
state rig that will run from a 12 volt battery and solar photoelectrics.

I _think_ I may have a vintage vibrator-style static inverter that will
allow you to run the HQ-100 off a 12 volt battery and solar photoelectrics.
I'll have to go hunting for it, but it certainly would make for an unusual
alternative-energy station.

Unusual, yes. To the point, no. The idea is to communicate effectively and
efficiently at the same time. Spending solar power to heat up the shack
isn't where we are coming from. But thanks anyway.
