NO RESERVE - HIGH BIDDER WINS THE AUCTION!


Another item from a lifelong collection of ham radio gear



Eimac 3-500Z Power Tube for Ham Radio Linear Amplifiers


Good Filament, Looks Great, In Original Eimac Box w/Documentation





ITEM DETAILS


Please see the photos, which comprise the bulk of the description.  I'm unable to test the tube's condition other than filament continuity (see photos for the resistance reading), nor can I confirm the information written on the box.  

The box is in good shape and might be useful to store a better tube in your collection.  This tube is probably at the end of its life and should be considered as display only. 




BACKGROUND


I have the unfortunate duty of liquidating the radio estate of my recently-deceased lifelong friend.  He was a ham radio operator ever since childhood,   He worked his way through college as an electronics assembler in the golden years of Silicon Valley, and then had an outstanding career as an electronics engineer.  But he never quit on ham radio, even as the internet and other means of communication developed, using both vintage and modern gear.


When he passed away unexpectedly, he thus left behind a pretty big stash of gear and spares.  This and several other tubes and accessories are from that collection.



BUSINESS DETAILS


Now for the business part. This is an as-is sale, with no returns. I have experience with packing and shipping fragile items, including vintage electronics such as this, and will do everything necessary - including double-boxing - to assure it gets to you in the same condition as it leaves here. Insurance at the auction sale price will be included in shipping costs.


I will not ship this item internationally to overseas buyers, either directly or using ebay's service.

Thanks for looking and good luck with your bidding.
