F/S BIRD 150 WATT DUMMY LOAD: I have available a BIRD Dummy Load, model 8166. This is the same as the 8165 except there are a few tapped holes on the bottom for mounting the load to a chassis. It is rated to handle 150 watts, and it is specified to work from DC to 2.5 GHz. Physically, there are a number of spots where the black finish is rubbed off or scratched off, but that does not affect the load. Currently there is a BNC female connector on the load, but If you would prefer a different connector (UHF female or N female) let me know and I can change it for you.

I have available for sale a BIRD 2500 watt dummy load, model 8890-300. This is rated at 2500 watts CONTINUOUS DUTY - - no time limit at 2500 watts. It currently has an N female connector on the load, but I can change that to a UHF(SO-239) or an HN or even an LC if you prefer. The load's SWR is under 1.1 at 1 GHz, and under 1.3 at 2.4 GHZ. It has the Shipping plug installed. The Breather plug is included, and attached to the Shipping plug with a short chain.
-
My asking price is $1200 plus shipping, or I can deliver it to you at any local hamfest. This is very heavy, almost 60 pounds, so shipping will be expensive. I travel to many hamfests in the mid-Atlantic area, so delivery is possible to save the shipping cost.
