Ad Number:	1753973
Date Placed:	12/28/25
Name:	Charles Ed Dobbs
Phone Number:	EMAIL ONLY
Callsign:	KT4BZ
Category:	AMPHF
Heading:	QRO-2000 early s/n for parts.
Ad Message:	I purchased this amplifier several years ago. It was a drive to meet situation. Amplifier was to work very well, but may need some minor repair. (I am sure you know where this is going.) I was not able to see it work, it was a cold day in the late winter, and we did not remove the cover. When I got it home it would arc and spark around the tube base. The high voltage seemed to be ok. The tubes were very low on power. Someone had made a 30 meter conversion to the amp. The work looked like crap. I removed it and started the tube base repair. My work got very busy and I had no time to spend with it. Now I am almost 73 and have no desire to work on this. That was also what QRO said when I contacted them. Seems this unit was made by a previous QRO Company owner. Serious reasonable offers. Nothing Laughable! I will take it to electronic recycle before I give it away.

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:
