Sunair GCU-1935
Kilowatt Automatic
Antenna Coupler


New in the Box!! Never Used!!!

(EQP) SUN-GCU1935
Well, if you have followed us through the years you know we don't exaggerate, but when the factory calls this beauty 1kw continuous, I've got to scratch my head. The roller inductor should handle 30 amps, the vacuum 75 amps. So, with a little rewiring.....

Designed to couple the GSB-900 transceiver and GSL-1900A Linear Amplifier into a 35' whip and 50' to 150' long wires or works as a line flattener into unbalanced (coaxial fed) antennas from 1.6 - 30 MHz!

The general design is an "L" network with series input vacuum cap and shunt inductor at the output for short antennas like the whip. For long wires, a fixed doorknob is connected in series with the antenna to form a "T" network.

New in the box! Never used!!!
(ANT) CU-815A
Altronics antenna coupler as made for the Dept. of the Navy. Large cabinet (36" x 40" x 34-1/2"H) and proximity of components makes this capacitive circuit very efficient. Design incorporates three variable and two fixed vacuum capacitors (not included with basic coupler). Millen 10030 turns counter included. Long wire output insulator on rear. Basic coupler does not include capacitors or flanges. Shipped in large crate motor freight only.

1.60 - 30 MHz Automatic
Antenna Coupler
Includes Vacuum Capacitor and
24 µH 20 amp Inductor

 
(EQP) SR-680
This is the jewel from our SRS acquisition. It is factory rated at 150 watts but has the capability of being modified to handle 2kw plus. The main tuning components are a motor driven Jennings CVCJ-1000 5kw vacuum variable capacitor and a motor driven 24 µH edge wound 20 amp variable inductor (See details on this inductor under the Variable Inductor section of this site).

You be the judge! It is designed to operate with Scientific Radio's SR-380 transceiver on the RS-422 bus but should be able to be modified (we hope) to operate with a small home-made control box. We can provide full "Theory Of Operation" specifications prior to purchase for your perusal. 28 vdc @ 7 amps required but motors will run on 8-12 vdc. Designed to use 8' to 75' radiator.

Our units were completed and tested at the factory. Gear motors that operate the vacuum cap were robbed for spare parts so we have priced them accordingly. We can provide a gear motor we have modified to fit for $95 extra or you can solve the issue. 13" x 16" x 9-1/2" rain tight enclosure has "N" connector input and a beehive insulator on the antenna side.

The hinged lid contains most of the control circuitry. 37 pounds. Copy of a full factory manual included with purchase. 1981 SRS price was $3,290. We are selling this brand new coupler for less than the OEM price of it's Jennings vacuum cap! Surplus Sales special introductory price...
 

1.60 - 30 MHz Programmable
Antenna Coupler
Includes 18 µH
Kilowatt Inductor

(EQP) SR-640
Another of our SRS acquisitions. Factory rated at 100 watts continuous, 150 watts peak. This was the latest digital design SRS produced.

Programmable broad banded full range HF tuner incorporates a motor driven 18 µH Johnson roller inductor and switched fixed capacitors for 10 preset channels. It is designed to operate with Scientific Radio's SR-380 transceiver on the RS-422 bus but should be able to be modified (we hope) to operate with a small home-made control box.

We can provide full "Theory Of Operation" specifications prior to purchase for your perusal. 18 vdc control voltage required. Designed to use 8' to 75' radiator. Our units were completed and tested at the factory. 6" high x 12" wide x 14" long rain tight enclosure has "UHF" connector input and a beehive insulator on the antenna side. The lid has O-ring weather seal. 18 pounds.

Copy of a full factory manual included with purchase. 1981 SRS price was $1,320.
