Ad Number:	1743548
Date Placed:	09/18/25
Name:	Scott Freeberg
Phone Number:	651 315-3574
Callsign:	WA9WFA
Category:	AMPHF
Heading:	FOR Ameritron AL-80B 10 - 160m Amplifier
Ad Message:	I'm selling my Ameritron AL-80B HF amplifier for 10 - 160 meters. I measured 700 watts PEP on 15 meters, 800 watts on 20 meters, 900 watts on 40 meters, and 850 watts on 80 meters. The amplifier is in very good and clean condition. Includes original manual. Wired for 120 VAC. I am the second owner, and I've owned it for around 11 years. When I bought it, the seller told me the 3-500 tube was getting weak so he included a new Amprex 3-500Z tube. As he told me, the tube was a bit weak but not enough for me to bother installing the extra tube. I've never opened up the amplifier. Including the extra Amprex 3-500Z. I'm replacing this AL-80B with a smaller and lighter weight solid state amplifier that I can actually move at my age. Asking $1100, local pick up in Saint Paul Minnesota but I am willing to drive 50-75 miles to meet up part way with a buyer. If you pick it up, I'm happy to demonstrate it. If I drive to meet up, it is sold as is. I am happy to talk with you about the amplifier.

Your Response to this Ad:

Due to the amount of non-ham scammers trying to respond to the ads, I am now asking a simple question that ham operators should easily be able to answer, but scammers may not know the answer: What is the number that hams use to represent the phrase "Best Regards"? This number is typically transmitted by hams at the end of a QSO.
Best Regards:
