MW-10 available for parts

Postby Deep Thought » Fri Jul 23, 2010 6:34 pm

A 1986 Harris MW-10 is available for parts or as a whole unit minus some rectifiers. This is one of the last MW-10s produced and has had all of the recommended field modifications done over the years. Retired from service last week and is being replaced by one of Jeff's wonderboxes.

Send me a PM or email or call for details. My office phone number is on my profile here.

Ah, the MW series. Great transmitters once you learned their idiosyncrasies.

Alas ... every transmitter has a personality. Is there/was there ever such a thing as a "perfect" or "flawless" transmitter?

I don't know about perfect, but the old Western Electric 50 kw with the linear PA was kinda handy. If you were clever, you could make some liquid refreshments with the still. That is, if the revenooers didn't catch on to what you were doing. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I have about 5 Nautel transmitters that will prove you wrong.

If it was an MW-1 or an MW-5 and one month ago we would be talking. We completely lost an MW-1 in a severe thunderstorm/tornado. And we thought the MW-5 was gone until we found the box with 18 extra diodes.

This has been an interesting month to say the least.

My Nautels have a personality, that personality is summed up by "eh" *shrug* (that's what the transmitter does, not I)
