BIRD 2500 WATT DUMMY LOAD: I have available for sale a BIRD 2500 watt dummy loaded, model 8892-300. This load came to me with a 1-5/8 inch flange interface sticking out from the load. I have added an adapter plate which allows me to use any BIRD Quick Change connector. Currently there is an LC female connector on it, but I can change that to whatever series connector you would like - - let me know your connector preference. This load also has the optional temperature sensor switch (located on the front above the input coax connector.)
-
See the attached picture.
-
Because of this load's RF input connector protruding out the front, there would be an increased possible damage if this were shipped - - so I WILL NOT SHIP THIS LOAD. I can deliver this in person at any local hamfest or at the Dayton Hamvention.
-
The price is $1250.; Listing #1760932 - Submitted on 03/04/26 by Callsign K3DUA, Modified on 03/08/26 - IP: pool-173-69-135-23.bltmmd.fios.verizon.net; Click to Contact -- Click Here to View Picture -- Send this Ad to a Friend
