Collins 32V2 Transmitter "Operates Excellent" No Reserve
From a local estate. This transmitter had not been used in the last 30 to 40 years. I have brought it up to operating voltage over several hours on the Variac. It did not require any repairs other than spray cleaning switches, controls and installing new grounded power cord. I have over sprayed the cabinet in St James gray. I have tested it on all bands. It has 100+ watts output (700 volt switch and 220 ma.) on all bands except 10 and 15 which is about 70 watts. The audio looks very good on the scope. The carrier does not show any hum. I have had this on the air on 3885 in a QSO for a half hour or so. Both dials are good, but very dirty. None of the lights in the band dial operate. They will need replaced as well as the white plastic behind the band dial. It has deteriorated over the years( see photo 8). This does not affect the operation of the transmitter, just the dial does not light up. Both the red and green light operate. The PTT circuit operates correctly. Included is an original Collins manual, but this manual is not original to this transmitter.
Because of the age of this transmitter, it is sold 100% AS IS. It should operate satisfactory when you get it, but in case it don't you will have to repair it as necessary. If you can't do this, please do not bid. This is not a Howard Mills restored transmitter, just an old transmitter that still operates. This is a very heavy item to ship. I have shipped these before without any problems. It will be double boxed with a minimum of 3" of styrofoam all around and insured for the value of the auction. Pick up is welcomed.

Q: Could you give full details on all modifications that have been made to the rig?
A: I don't know what you want to know. Why don't you read the description and ask me specific questions that you need to know. I thought I had listed everything I knew about the transmitter. I have not verified that every wire and every part are correct according to the schematic. Thanks, Jim
