Ge mastr delta 2CH xtal radio 40W vhf-high / 2M ham


GE "Mastr Delta" (not Mastr II) 2 Ch Crystal 40 W VHF-Hi Radio, tested, working.
Drawer unit only, Combination # M4HH10040C0UB0000. I have several, I believe they are all the same combination #
Currently on 159.18 TX and 154.24 RX.
Includes radio (sample shown) with lid and mounting tray. Handle is unlocked. I recommend removing the lock and pulling the discs out, then it can be operated with a suitable blank key.
I have used one of these on 146.76 and 146.88 for several years with good results. Transmitter tuned to 2m OK. This is near the end of the range for the receiver helical resonator, I had to remove, flip and reinstall the resonator locknuts to provide more tuning range. So far I have tried them down to 146.16 tx and 146.52 rx, not sure how low they will go. These do not have PL/CTCSS, but I can tell you where to insert it. I will include pinout information with purchase.
Also could be used for a nice single-channel monitor. The receive crystal is a 3rd harmonic xtal with 10.7 IF....so a $5 Regency formula scanner xtal will work fine. Or...use the PA for a 1/2 Watt in, 40W out HT booster amp...just needs some resistors on the input and an RF switching circuit added.
Plenty loud...audio amp is rated at 12 watts.
FREE Local Pickup available in Cleveland Ohio, West side.
