Description

This EF Johnson Viking Valiant Transmitter, covers 10-160 Meters and is in in Very Good Cosmetic Condition.

NOTE: This is a pick up item only. (Near Green Bay, Wisconsin)

The AC cord on this transmitter will need to be replaced. I was able to power it up and it came on and the tubes light up, but other than that it is untested so it may need some attention.

 I have Capacitor replacement kits available for this transmitter.

 The front panel is in excellent shape as pictured. The cabinet is also nice with no dents or dings. It has some sharpie touch ups but looks pretty good for a 65 year old radio.

 There are many articles on line for restoring and servicing this transmitter.

 I am selling it as is, as described, to be picked up near Green Bay, Wisconsin.
