professional digital voltmeter
hf_beam.jpg
some huge beams on a tower. Tower is made of tubular steel and appears to be one piece, possibly two, about 30-40FT tall, with rotor. Base has small tree entangled in tower. Not damaged, tree will have to be sawed through, 3" trunk, will be some work.
hf_beam_tower1.jpg hf_beam_tower2.jpg ic_251a.jpg Icom IC-251A 2M rig. comes on but display is all "8's", as in 888.888888. unknown fix, maybe logic regulator. makes noises and behaves as though radio part is working.
icom_ic725.jpg
Icom IC-275 HF xcvr, intermittent DC power, will work then go dead. Receives well. Maybe bad connection to power, otherwise power is solid. The switches for KHZ MHZ Band Lock are very dirty and don't release right causing difficulty to operate.
icom_ic735-1.jpg
Icom IC-735 HF XCVR, SSB(A3J), CW(A1), FM(F3), AM(A3) . Receives well. , one lamp out on display, RF power setting (control behind front door) seems to be max all time. otherwise seems to work OK. bands opened. Seems to draw too much power from the 12V supply and makes it "limit", but I was not able to investigate that. I think the issue is possibly the voltage setting on the supply (low) because of the way it acted.
icom_ic735_2.jpg
Icom IC-735 HF XCVR this one seems to work OK. Receives well. SSB(A3J), CW(A1), FM(F3), AM(A3). bands opened. Seems to draw too much power from the 12V supply and makes it "limit", but I was not able to investigate that. I think the issue is possibly the voltage setting on the supply (low) because of the way it acted.
icom_ic737.jpg
Icom IC-737 HF XCVR, SSB(A3J), CW(A1), FM(F3), AM(A3). Receives well. One lamp out on display, RF power setting (control on front panel) seems to be max all time. otherwise seems to work OK. bands opened. Seems to draw too much power from the 12V supply and makes it "limit", but I was not able to investigate that. I think the issue is possibly the voltage setting on the supply (low) because of the way it acted.
icom_ic_2kl.jpg
Icom IC-2KL linear amplifier, 500 watts, 10-160M, solid state. Automatic bandswitching when used with Icom HF radio IC-737 or 735. Uses IC-2KLPS power supply next..

icom_icat500_2_pic1.jpg
Looks like a new-in-plastic-wrapping Icom IC-AT500 automatic antenna tuner that has been sitting around a while. Odd but that is what it looks like.
icom_icat500_2_pic2.jpg
rear panel of the tuner in plasic.
jwmiller_at2500.jpg
JW Miller AT 2500 automatic antenna tuner. Seems to work, knobs turn by themselves when RF applied and "Tune" pushed, but was not able to really test because the antenna cables removed from entry to the house already. Rated 2500W.
kenwood_tm221a_and_vj_2m_amp.jpg
Kenwood TM-221A 2M mobile rig. came on, not way to test further. Also 90 watt 2M mobile amp. Amp was sitting in shelf in carport, so explains the appearance and cobwebs! The radio was in the house so it is only dirty.

tv_tower_1.jpg
crank-up TV tower with antenna and rotor. looks like about 8-10" on a side and 25-30 FT total height when extended. Winch is shot but ther are a couple extras in the carport.
tv_tower_2.jpg tv_tower_3.jpg vbc_model300.jpg NBVM baseband tranceiver VBC model 3000. This is a speech processor that contesters use. from the WWW: "The voice audio is amplified as need then bandwidth-limited to 2500 Hz. This signal is split into two components. Vowel sounds are selected out ( 500 Hz - Low Pass) and consonant sounds (1500 Hz to 2200 Hz - Bandpass). The consonant sounds are used to modulate a carrier to produce an output consisting of frequency translated and inverted voice compnents (600 Hz to 1600 Hz inverted - LSB) and summed with the vowel sounds. Now we have the vowel sounds to 500 Hz and the consonant sounds inverted in frequency 1600 Hz to 600 Hz. Reducing bandwidth by 50% and improving SNR. To recieve is just the opposite process."
vert1.jpg
multiband vertical antenna seems in good shape. About 15-20FT tall.

vjproducts_15a_psu.jpg
12V 15A DC power supply.
w2au_i1_nib.jpg
looks new in box, a balun W2AU model I1 with lightning arrestor built in. with manual.
wire_and_beam.jpg
The fuller spool is RG-213. Has been outside but I think if the first 20FT or so were cut off the rest would be as new. There are many piles and coils of wire here. Also in this pic, more HF beam elements.
xtower1.jpg
6 section HBX tower with X braces. Easily removed as is correctly bolted to proper mount in ground.
