Ad Number:	1748636
Date Placed:	11/06/25
Name:	Doug Furton
Phone Number:	EMAIL ONLY
Callsign:	K8EXB
Category:	AMPHF
Heading:	FS: RM Italy BLA600 Solid State Amp
Ad Message:	Offering this RM Italy BLA600 amplifier for $900. I used this amp for a few months on CW. It works as it should with full power output and low drive, and cosmetically it is very clean. Full disclosure: what I don’t like about the amp is that the transformer hums at higher power levels, which annoys me to the point that I don’t use it. The transformer hum is much less pronounced in voice modes. It is heavy, and I will ship it at your expense, but I’m willing to drive a couple hours from West Michigan to make a deal in person. It is wired for 240 VAC, but that’s easy to change. If you would like a robust 600W solid-state amplifier and don’t mind a little transformer hum, make me an offer. The sale includes the amplifier, the original manual, and a power cord. More pictures are available, contact me first via QTH. If the ad is up the amp is available.

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:
