Description
Vintage Standard Radio SR-C146A Here's a nice addition to your vintage radio collection. The SR-C146A radio was one of the first handheld radios specifically aimed at ham radio users. This was before the Yaesu, Kenwood and Icom radios took over the market. Sold as early as 1972 it was really popular and sold well. As can be seen in the ad it sold for $289 and back in 72 that was a pretty expensive for the average ham and equal to over $2100 in todays money. This thing is huge compared to the tiny radios around today. I takes 10 AA cells in it's battery pack. It weighs 4 lbs with the battery installed. The radio is crystal controlled and has 5 pairs installed. It does NOT have the optional PL encoder. It transmits and receives and has the optional remote microphone. This is not a speaker mic it is only a microphone. Also includes the charging base. I have not tested it actually charging but there is voltage on the contacts. The only problem I see is that the battery voltmeter does not seem to work. A microphone belt clip and a copy of the operation manual is also included. While this radio "works" is a vintage radio and can fail in any way at any time. The item shown is the one you will receive. If you need more information about the item please ask.
