What a deal!! I paid $89 for it on ebay and it looks like it just came from the factory. Their is not a single scratch, dent,blemish,rust nothing even the plastic meter cover is clear not yellowed and devoid of any scratch's. It if not for signs that coax cables had been hooked to it on the connectors their would be no sign it had ever been used. It had no dust and no smell of smoke or anything like that.
The box is not the OEM box but it was int he plastic bag that it shiped in fromt he factor and it had formed foam that sandwiched it perfectly. I was so impressed when I took it out of the box at it's cosmetic condition. Most AMP's I see on Ebay even the Amatuer models look like they have been sitting in someone's chicken coup or barn for 20+ years dusty, scratched up, faded paint, yellowed plastic meter cover's etc......The photo's on ebay where not that impressive but boy was the real thing!
I have not had time to take it out and test her out. I moved recently and have not unpacked my base station gear or set up my dipole's in the attic yet etc. I was just so totally impressed by the condition I had to share it with someone else. Having one of those geeky out moments!! LOL
I am hoping that the inside is just as good either repaired as needed to over time or used often enough that all the caps are still in great shape. I never expected it to be in this nice of shape. Usually when I get things off ebay even if they power up they are not in pristine shape like this1! |
