Subject: BC72 for sale - Reduced Price
Organization: Iowa State University, Ames, IA
Distribution: na
Date: Mon, 11 Jan 1993 00:10:43 GMT

I have a Icom BC-72 drop in charger for sale. Previously I was asking $95, and
since have reconsidered my asking price. I am now asking $75+shipping/COD.

For those unfamilar with the BC-72, it is the drop-in quick charger for Icom's
S-series radios. It will charge any pack for this series of radios with the
metal connectors on the back, these include the BP-81,82,82,84, and 85 as well
as most 'Super Packs.' Charge times are about one hour, a bit longer for the
12V '5W' packs like the BP-85. It will also charge the SAT's internal
batteries if the BA-12 battery charge adaptor is used (I have one, and it
could be negoatated into the deal). The BC-72 comes with its own power supply
or can be run from any 12V power source, including a car battery. The power
connection is made with one of the two available barrel plugs, one of which is
the same size as the jack used on the SA/SAT/24AT. The list price for one of
these units new is around $100.

This unit is about two months old, and has worked flawlessly under my limited
use. I am selling only because I do not use it that much, and would like to
upgrade my computer system.

I will be out of town for the next five days so please understand any delays
this may cause in getting back to you.

Thanks!

	I have a well used, but very functional 2m HT to sell.  The
	unit does have the dtmf pad (didn't they all??), AA cell
	case, and the mobile (12v) connector.  

	I am asking $100 and would like to keep the sale local to
	the bay area, hence the `ba` distribution.

I recently aquired an old Heathkit SB-101, but the

have a manual they'd be willing to part with? Or
would you be willing to make a copy of it for me?
(I'd cover repro and shipping fees, of course.)

I aquired (from a govt. surplus auction) a Data General One Laptop Computer
which I intended to use for portable/emergency packet as a dumb terminal.
Problem is, I didn't get any software for it. I beleive the software enables
the contrast circuit for the lcd display. The manual states;" hold down the Ctrl
and right shift button to set the contrast to an exceptable level" (it is
not a back lighted display). So I am looking for someone who has the software
I need (Data General doesn't sell it anymore).
Also if anyone knows where I can get a memory upgrade for this thing Please
Email me! (It takes a special memory card kinda like a SIPP)
Or if anyone wants to buy a Data GEneral One Laptop computer (XT compat)) with
a whooping 256K of RAM and 2 760K 3.5 inch floppies and no hardware contrast
control and a brand new battery, a carrying case,and a 110v supply. Any 
offer over 300 dollars (plus shipping UPS COD) will gladly take it off of my 
hands!

Newsgroups: rec.radio.swap
Date: 7 Jan 93 16:51:56 GMT

I have a friend here at the University who is about to pass his General
license exam.  He is in the market for an HF transceiver of any vintage,
preferably DC powered as an option.

We are not worried if the radio has problems, we will invest time and effort
to put one back together.

As I have experience with re-working a Kenwood TS 520, that sort of rig would
be ideal, especially if it is bargain priced due to needed repairs.  The
Yaesu FT 101 series is another ideal.  Ten Tec Tritons and other early
solid state transceivers would be fine also.

You can contact me directly, as I will help my friend with his decision.

  It receives great.  I got this radio from a non-ham person, and it
had no manual, so I don't know how to tune up the finals.  Because of
that, I don't know how well the transmitter is actually working (even
thou the person said it all was in great condition).  

 If you are interested on this radio and want to know how well the
transmitter works, I just would need to get the info on how to tune it
up.  if you have that, and email would be appreciated.  I will test it
on the air and tell you how good it works as soon as I get the tuning
info.

  I would like to ask $350 plus shipping for the radio and power
supply ***this price is totally negotiable*** pse email or call if you want to
make an offer.

I would like to purchase a C.B. antenna for my car.  I am thinking of a K40 in particular, but I am not particular.  I would like to move up from my current antenna (garage sale special).  I would also appreciate advice on this topic.  You can mail me at jvlaan19@ursa.calvin.edu.  Thanks.

I do have a chimney mounted antenna which I have been trying to use, but the local tcp/ip host can't hear me...

I should also state I am on a tight budget, and probably wont be using it too much.  I received a few replies like "I paid $389+tax for it..."... all I need is a xtal controlled transceiver for occasionally 'playing around'.  I'm not planning on putting up a major station, but I would like to be able to do something every now and then ;).
