HT-17

A little Transmitter Hallicrafters HT-17

Bring back your Novice memories with this simple easy to restore 807 tube transmitter with great potential.

Optional plate meter installed.	Power transformer and choke good when tested.	7 - 7.3 MHz output coil.	Some restoration needed.
Exterior in good condition.	Power cord is cut off.	Unit tested with a temporary line cord.

Tubes: 807, 6V6, 5Y3.

E can cap tested low ESR.

Unit initially powered up up on a Dim Bulb Tester then directly by the line. I do not have a crystal to test this unit. But injecting 7MHz into the crystal socket with an RF generator showed oscillator activity on an oscilloscope. I did not see an output from the 807.

There are several carbon comp. resistors that are out of tolerance or split that need replaced. All the tubes test good on a Heathkit emissions tester. There is a 7.0 - 7.3 MHz output coil included.

A final note. This unit was donated to Skyview Radio Society by the estate of an SK. When this amp is sold all the proceeds will benefit Skyview Radio Society radio club (a 501c3 corp). We are thankful for the generous donations from local SK families to the Skyview Radio Society.

I will not be listing this unit. Please contact Skyview directly for details. I only prepared and documented this unit for sale.

There are no guarantees, warrantees or any other promises of functionality. This unit is intended for sale, As is, Where is, unless stated otherwise by the owner/seller. This is used vintage equipment.
