Description
This Heathkit DX-60 AM/CW 90 Watt (input) Transmitter covers 10-80 Meters, and is in very good condition.
I tested this rig with an HG-10 VFO on the 80 Meter band, and it powered up okay and put out good power.
I did not test it any further than that.
This transmitter has been stored for some time in a clean, dry, environment, and is in great shape.
The fuse plug is cracked near the front but still works okay. I have them in stock if needed.
The Heathkit DX-60 is a CW and AM transmitter introduced in 1962.
It replaced the DX-40.
Designed for the 80 to 10 meter ham bands, the DX-60 uses a 6146 final RF tube for 90 watts peak power input controlled carrier AM and CW.
The DX-60 has a built in Low Pass Filter, and Grid Block Keying. The front panel switch selects the external VFO (I have some in other listings) or 4 crystal positions.
The Transmitter has a Controlled Carrier Modulator and power supply built in.
I am selling this transmitter as is, as described for the family of a silent key.
As with most vintage gear, it may need some attention but does appear to be working as it is.
