a very nice Collins 20-V 3 AM transmitter. I purchased it years ago from an engineer in Northern Missouri. I had plans on putting it at one watt for educational purposes for entry level local broadcasters showing them how we used to do things. That never materialized. It has been in my studio for all these years.
I am not sure of the frequency because when I got it, all tubes and the crystal were boxed up for transport.
I believe it is higher on the band…maybe 1300-1450, something like that. I will go through and see what the crystal says. At any rate, it is clean and looks to be well maintained. I just don’t have any future plans for it. I have never installed it in all thee years. I will take 1200 for it and you must pick up locally.
