Description

This Ten-Tec Argossy 525D (Digital) HF Transceiver with Noise Blanker, 3 Optional Filters, Amplifier Keying Relay & 225 Matching Power Supply, all in Excellent Condition.

Options:

  • 2.4 kHz 8-pole ssb filter Model 220
  • 500 Hz cw filer Model 217
  • Audio cw filter Model 224
  • Noise blanker Model 223 
  • Power Supply Model 225
  • Linear switching kit Model 1126
  •  
  •  
  • This Digital display version of the Argossy, looks great and receives and transmits as it should. As with most vintage gear, it may be improved with an alignment.

The Argosy 525D is a medium power solid state transceiver covering 80, 40, 30, 20, 15, and 10 meters. It has a switch on the back to put out 40 to 50 watts, or 4 to 5 watts for QRP operation.

 I will provide  the manual for the radio and power supply with all the service information.

I have other accessories available for this and many other classic Ten-Tec Radios. Please check with me if you do not see what you want listed.

 Due to the age of this transceiver, I am selling this radio as is, as described and no returns. 

Specifications

 

General

  • Frequency Coverage: 3.5 - 4.0, 7.0 - 7.5, 10.0 - 10.5, 14.0 - 14.5, 21.0 - 21.5, 28.0 - 28.5, 28.5 - 29.0, 29.0 - 29.5, 29.5 - 30.0 MHz. (VFO provides approximately 40 kHz overrun on each band edge.)
  • Operating Modes: Normal sideband, reverse sideband, cw.
  • VFO Stability: less than 20 Hz change per oF averaged over a 40o change from 70o to 110o after a 30 minute warmup. Less than 15 Hz change from 105 to 125 VAC line voltage when using a Ten-Tec power supply.
