Available for sale is the rare Drake TR-6 transceiver. This radio came from the estate of a gentleman who was downsizing his massive collection of unique and hard-to-find ham radio equipment. This particular unit has the optional 9-NB Noise Blanker accessory and two open filter slots! Physically, the radio is in excellent condition for its age showing only minor wear. The cabinet shows minor signs of age-related wear but is still extraordinarily clean, as are the front panel and the knobs! The chassis is also a bit worn, but still shines quite nicely. We believe the photos will do a better job of conveying the quality of this unit, so please check them out below! It is a real collector’s piece indeed! Our technician tested the radio and found that it it runs beautifully! Here is what he had to say. Tested with RV-6, MS-4, dummy load, and RF generator. Ran on CW – full output. Unfortunately we do not have a microphone to test on SSB. Strong receive signals from RF generator. Sprayed the pots and switches with contact cleaner. The unit requires an external speaker and power supply (not included). IMPORTANT: This is a.
