Varmint XL-1000 Linear Base Amplifier HAM Amateur Radio 6LR6 6KV6 Vacuum Tube
THE GUY I GOT THIS FROM SAID HIS FATHER BOUGHT THIS WHEN HE WANTED TO GET IN TO HM/CB RADIO BACK IN THE DAY. HE GOT DISINTERESTED IN IT REAL QUICK AND NEVER EVEN USED THIS. IT HAS JUST SET ON A SHELF SINCE. HE SAID THAT A PLUG WAS NEVER EVEN INSTALLED ON THE CORD. I KNOW HOW STORIES GO SO I CANNOT 100% GUARANTEE THIS TO BE TRUE HOWEVER AS YOU CAN SEE THE INSIDE AND OUT LOOKS LIKE THE DAY IT CAME FROM THE FACTORY. IF THE TUBES WERE EVER POWERED ON IT WAS NOT FOR LONG. THERE IS REALLY NO TRACES OF HEAT EVEN. THE TUBES AND ALL COMPONENTS LOOK MINT!
I WAS GOING TO THROW AN END ON THIS BUT I HAVE NO WAY TO TO TEST IT OTHER THAN POWERING IT ON SO I HAVE DECIDED AGAINST POWERING IT ON. I WOULD RATHER SOMEONE WITH MORE KNOWLEDGE OF IT AND HAS THE PROPER SETUP TO TEST IT BE THE ONE TO POWER IT ON. IT COMES WITH THE ORIGINAL BOX BUT I DO NOT HAVE ANY OF THE PAPERWORK THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. ALSO COMES WITH THREE ADDITIONAL NOS 6LR6 TUBES. I WILL PACK THEM INSIDE SO YOU WILL NEED TO REMOVE THE TOP AND TAKE THEM OUT BEFORE POWERING IT ON.
BOTTOM LINE IS I DON'T THINK YOU WILL EVER FIND A NICER EXAMPLE OF THIS AMP. IT WILL BE INSURED AND WILL REQUIRE A SIGNATURE.
