Some pics of the inards:
The sideband converter looks untouched inside, I removed the aluminium screening covers off the filters (internals not shown in pics) and they are like new inside so all in all I would say that this unit will be a goer in the end.
Typical Racal build quality, very good.
The Tx/Rx.... Well it's a bit more than yer average CB base station, very well made inside and again appears to be untampered with. It's quite heavy.
It's all discrete solid state inside which kinda leaves me cold except for the two PA valves under the vented screening cover, had a look inside the PA, both valves present but too much hassle at the moment to get an ID on them, some nice coils and air spaced variable capacitors in there although it would be a shame to break it up for them.
I'll hang on to it as it is for the moment, I tried to Google any info on this rig but could not find anything so far.
Anyone heard of it?......Kelvin Hughes a Division of Smiths Industries, TR120 Tranceiver.
