Description

This RL Drake R-4 HF Receiver in Very Nice condition S/N 1714

 This R-4 Receiver has been electrically and cosmetically refurbished by Ron Baker WB4HFN

The Cabinet has been refinished, Chassis cleaned, and all tubes were checked and replaced as needed.

 The Chassis Mounted Cap can has been bypasses and two new electrolytic capacitors have been added in place of the can.

A Full alignment was done.

 The front face is clean with no bad marks or scratches.

The Chassis looks to be in great shape with some minor discoloring.

I put this receiver on the air and it is working and receiving signals on 80 and 40 meters, which I have an antenna for, with no apparent problems.

The receiver sounded great on USB. LSB, and AM.

All bandwidths work as they should and the calibrator works good.

I am selling this Receiver as is, as  described,  for a client who has been collecting only the finest RL Drake Gear for many years.

 This receiver has been stored unused since the refurbishment was done.

The R.L. Drake Company produced the R-4 as an advancement over the famous 2C model. The R-4 covers:  3.5-4, 7-7.5, 14-14.5, 21-21.5 and 28.5-29 MHz plus ten 500 kHz crystal positions (with optional crystals). Modes of reception include:  SSB, CW and AM. The dial accuracy is and impressive ±1 kHz. Features include:  PBT, Line out, Crystal Calibrator (100 kHz), RF Gain, Mute Jack, Speaker Jack, Anti-Vox Jack, ¼ inch headphone jack and Dial Lamp. This radio requires an external speaker. Transceive operation maybe obtained by adding the T-4 reciter or T-4X transmitter.

120/240 VAC 50-420 Hz 60 watts. 10.75 x 5.5 x 11.675 inches 16 lbs.
