This KWM-2A is in pretty nice cosmetic condition. The cabinet has been repainted and is missing the lock-screws on the lid, but aside from that the radio looks terrific and is very clean. It was serviced by Collins Rebuilders (K2LRC) in 2014. Unfortunately, it is going to need some more work. We powered it up and my tech noticed smoke coming from near the power connector. We immediately disconnected it. Neither a power supply and microphone are included in the sale. With over 1,000 items in our inventory and new items added daily, you’re sure to find what you need! The bottom line is this… You’ll receive your item on time and in perfect condition regardless of how big, heavy, or delicate your item may be! WHAT’S INCLUDED IN THE SALE: You will only receive what is shown in the photographs. If you do not see it in the photos, it is likely not included in the sale. That includes manuals, packaging, power cords, etc. ABOUT US: Our company, Ham & HiFi, is located in Sparks, NV. Everyone in the shop is a ham operator and some have been licensed for more than 50 years.

This listing is for a Collins KWM-2A Round Emblem Ham Radio Receiver Serial #14862, MCN 9776 with 70k-2 PTO #52054 Previous owner’s notes on this radio. “Sn 14862 mcn 9776 plastic trim, screw type knobs except pa and tune no xtal CRACK ON DIAL AND S METER TRIM IS PLASTIC FCC ON IT SOME CHIPS VFO ACCURACY WITHIN A FEW HUNDREDS CYCLE pa COVER IS FROM PI FA FILTER TYPE DESERT RADIO CLEAN 100KC XTAL HAS 30PF IN SERIES”. Some dents, scuffs, scratches, etc from previous use. No Crystals as shown in the pictures. This is an item from a huge collection of vintage ham radio, test equipment, parts and camera equipment we are currently processing. We have many manuals, Ham Radios, thousands of test equipment and associated parts and pieces. The previous owner was a Ham Radio operator who collected all of these interesting items over the years. He really focused on purchasing equipment from special surplus auctions at the Nevada Test Site, Sandia Labs, Nellis Air Force Base, Kirtland Air force Base, etc. Many of the items we have are from EG&G, Department of Energy, NASA, Air Force, Navy, Marines and Army. The previous owner kept notes on nearly everything as it seemed to be his life-long hobby to collect, test, and document everything he owned. Manufacturing technology was not the same as it is today so imperfections should be expected. Also, these items may have been in storage for 40-80 years and could be dusty, greasy or have surface rust, spider webs, etc.

Vintage Collins 516F-2 power supply cabinet for amateur radio use in good physical condition. Shows signs of ordinary use over several decades. Finish is original and still has some shine – there are a few scratches on the LH side of the cabinet and chips and scrapes on the front edge of the metal trim ring. Front grille has some minor bends and witness marks from screw heads that were previously installed. Very usable but not collector quality. Includes rear and front extended “feet”.
