Eddystone EA12 HF Amateur Radio Bands Receiver For Sale

February 03, 2024 By: chris Category: For Sale

Hugh Thomas in Somerton, Somerset has an Eddystone EA12 receiver for sale which he purchased at the RAE exhibition in Leicester in the early 1970s when he was a student and it has been a reliable friend since then.

Hugh describes the condition as generally good but regrettably the S meter was already cracked when he bought it (common problem). The functionality of the EA12 is good and Hugh is unaware of any defects. The radio is sold “as seen” and heard. EA12 sets in good condition are much sort after and can attract high prices. Hugh is looking for a fair offer for this receiver and will offer a reduction for an organisation that encourages the young to engage with Amateur Radio and who will appreciate the hands on, engineering of this classic period of radio construction (1960s) built by Eddystone. The receiver is heavy and requires considerate handling so collection in person by the buyer is necessary from TA11 6NZ which is near Somerton in Somerset. Please email Hugh on hugh@thethomas.net using the subject as above.

Edometer S902 Mk II For Sale – Offers invited

October 22, 2023 By: chris Category: For Sale

Phil G4OBK in Pickering, North Yorkshire is helping the family of Malcolm G3KEV of Scarborough who went Silent Key last month at the age of 87 dispose of his amateur radio equipment gear. The money raised is going to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Service and Phil is on his way to raising at least £2000 from the sale of Malcolm’s gear for the charity.

 

 

Phil is offering an Edometer S902 Mk2 in excellent condition, complete with carry box, the seven coils and the original manual (see pic – more photos are available from Phil). Phil has checked to see that the PP3 battery had previously been removed and that there was no contamination inside the unit.

 

He fitted a new PP3 and checked that the unit does function as a signal generator. He also checked that the fixed 1000 Hz audio tone output was available on the right-hand side headphone socket but he hasn’t tested the other unit functions.

 

Bearing in mind that the proceeds are going to charity, Phil is inviting bids for this item and has put a deadline of Saturday November 4th for anyone wishing to make an offer for this historic Eddystone Item, without which no Eddystone collection would be complete. If you are interested in making an offer or wish for more details contact Phil by e mail on cq@yorkshirewalker.co.uk  UK delivery only unfortunately. Shipping can be arranged via Royal Mail 48 tracked for £7 but collection from Pickering is also acceptable.

Eddystone S640 Looking for a good home FOC.

September 25, 2022 By: chris Category: For Sale

Martin Evans in Alton, Hampshire has an S640 receiver which he bought as a teenager in about 1970 and used through his school and university years.  It hasn’t been powered on since cf. 1980 and has collected dust in his loft space until now.  He recently moved house and decided that he was unlikely to have the skills or motivation to restore the set.  Martin is looking to donate it to someone who will give it the care and appreciation that it deserves. As you can see from the pictures the set needs a good clean up but Martin says it was working when last used, and the mechanics of the stringing mechanism seems OK. There is some rust on the case and internal frame. 

Given the weight of the set it would need to be collected or a courier organised by whoever collects it.

If you are interested in this generous offer then please contact Martin via email

Good home wanted for S940 Eddystone Receiver

January 28, 2022 By: chris Category: For Sale

Sue Thomas in Cardiff is selling her late father’s Eddystone S940 receiver. Sue says that the radio has been lovingly looked after and it certainly looks to be in excellent condition. However it has not been used for some years so there is no guarantee. Sue wants to find a good home for this much loved radio, so she is looking for offers. The prospective purchaser can come and view and collect or she can deliver locally as far as say Bristol for the cost of the fuel. If you are interested in this receiver, Sue can be contacted on suethomas28@gmail.com
