    A BEAUTIFUL CLASSIC FROM HEATHKIT -- THE HW 16 TRANSCEIVER
    NO RESERVE
    NICE CONDITION -- AND IT TRANSMITS
    HERE'S AN OLDIE BY HEATHKIT -- AND IT LOOKS VERY NICE. NO MYSTERY WIRES, HOLES, PARTS.  APPEARS TO BE PRETTY MUCH ORIGINAL. AS YOU ARE PROBABLY AWARE, THIS TRANSCEIVER IS SOMEWHAT UNIQUE IN THAT THE ONLY "SHARED" COMPONENT IS THE POWER SUPPLY.  THE TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER ARE PRETTY MUCH STANDALONE UNITS.
    WORKS CW ON THE LOWER 250 HKZ OF THE 80, 40 AND 15 METER BANDS.  HAS ADJUSTABLE POWER OF 50 -- 90 WATTS. WAS IDEAL FOR THE NOVICE OPERATOR WAY BACK WHEN. YOU STILL SEE THESE RIGS IN SHACKS TODAY.
    COSMETICALLY IT WILL BE HARD TO BEAT THIS ONE. NO DINGS, DENTS OR MISSING PAINT ON THE CABINET.  THE CABINET IS TRUE AND STRAIGHT. THE FRONT FACE IS ALSO VERY CLEAN. NO REAL ISSUES AS YOU OFTEN SEEN ON OLD CLASSICS LIKE THIS. THE KNOBS ARE ALL ORIGINAL AND ARE NOT CRACKED. ALL KNOBS TURN AS THEY SHOULD, DIAL LIGHT LIGHTS, AND THE METER WORKS.
    FROM AN OPERATIONAL VIEWPOINT IT TRANSMITS WELL.  GOT OUTPUT ON 80, 40, AND 15. IT WAS CONSIDERABLY LOWER ON 15 AS IS OFTEN THE CASE WITH THESE RIGS.  CHECK OUT THE LIGHT BULB FOR OUTPUT ON 40.  DIPS WELL AND TUNES EASILY.
    THE WIRING CERTAINLY LOOKS DECENT.  WHOEVER BUILT THIS KIT DID A GOOD JOB.  IGNORE THE BLUE TAPE IN SOME OF THE PIX. IT IS MASKING TAPE TO SECURE THE TUBES IN PLACE. ALSO THE SMALL WHITE DOT ON THE LOWER LEFT CORNER OF THE FRONT IS A PIECE OF STYROFOAM.  THE FRONT FACE IS PRETTY MUCH SPOTLESS. TAKE A LOOK.
    FROM A RECEIVE STANDPOINT, IT HAS ISSUES.
    OTHER THAN SPORADIC CRACKLING IT DOES NOT RECEIVE ANY STATIONS
    . I TRIED ALL THREE BANDS AND NOTHING. DIDN'T MESS WITH IT MUCH, SO IT MAY BE AN EASY FIX OR MAY NOT. SINCE IT IS NOT FULLY FUNCTIONAL,
    IT IS BEING SOLD AS IS WITH NO RETURNS.
    I SUSPECT SOME OF YOU HEATH GUYS ALREADY HAVE SOME IDEAS ON HOW TO FIX IT.  IF YOU DO, YOU'LL HAVE A GREAT RIG.  REALLY NICE LOOKING.
    NO RESERVE,
    NO RETURNS.
    YOU HAVE MY 100% RATING THAT TELLS YOU I DESCRIBE ITEMS ACCURATELY.
    QUESTIONS? JUST ASK.
    WILL SHIP FEDEX. SORRY NO INTERNATIONAL SALES.
