Ad Number:	1726947
Date Placed:	04/24/25
Name:	Mark Dittmar
Phone Number:	303 877 0158
Callsign:	AB0CW
Category:	RADIOANQ
Heading:	FS: VIKING VALIANT, HQ180 w S-200 spkr
Ad Message:	Very nice, working vintage Viking Valiant 100W HF ( 80-10 meter ) amateur/ham transmitter, Hammarlund HQ180 HF receiver with matching Hammarlund S-200 speaker, also working well. Cabinets and paint are in excellent shape. Classic vintage ham AM station. The Valiant's electrolytic caps have been replaced, the rectifiers have been changed from 866s to a new pair of 3B28 rectifiers, and the infamous "chernobyl" resistor in the VFO compartment has been replaced. Otherwise no mods to the circuit that I could detect. Transmitter puts out 100 -120 watts of carrier. Sounds good on AM. Everything works as it should on the HQ180, including the clock. Have manuals for both units. Take the three pieces ( transmitter, receiver, and speaker ) for $575. You need to supply your own microphone ( D104 crystal mic works well ) More pictures on request. Pickup only in Anderson township area of Cincinnati. The transmitter is quite heavy ( 80 lbs ? ).

Your Response to this Ad:

Due to the amount of non-ham scammers trying to respond to the ads, I am now asking a simple question that ham operators should easily be able to answer, but scammers may not know the answer: What is the number that hams use to represent the phrase "Best Regards"? This number is typically transmitted by hams at the end of a QSO.
Best Regards:
