Swan and Vintage Radio Trader

Submit listings to: SwanTraderPage@Yahoo.Com

This page is provided as a service to Swan collectors and others associated with Vintage Amateur Radio activities.

In order to sustain the use of older American amateur radio equipment, it is necessary to make easy movement of these radios into the hands of interested hams. To make this possible, we will list your for sales, trades and wants here.

Also, we want to be helpful to the buyer and seller. In this regard, we ask that you provide the serial number(s) of the equipment you are listing. By these numbers, we can determine the production run, date of manufacture, associated schematics and service bulletins and so forth. We don't print the serial numbers in the ad unless requested by the seller.
NOTE: Although we do our best to assess the value and condition of listed items, we cannot vouch for the worthiness of any listing.

Please advise us when and if your listing has been satisfied. Without any notification as to status, phone numbers are removed after 60 days and entire listing after 90 days.

I have a little bit of Swan equipment for sale. It was all in working order about 6 years ago, has been sitting around since then as I have not had time to play. I am now in a situation where I do not have the space or time to do what I want with it, so I would like it to go to a good home where it can get used and taken care of.

For Sale: SWAN 700 CX Station
I have a 700CX and 117XC PS in excellent condition with manual and original boxes. It has very few hours on it and still has the 8950 finals. I added the boxorox power supply mod to the 117XC a few years ago, but kept the original board as well. I set the high voltage to the lower tap to conserve the tubes.

The serial number is 13042 (42nd one made) for the 700CX and 13217 for the 117CX.

Also included is a Turner 454 HC microphone, the Swan Compendium by Robert Balonis, and a couple of fans with felt feet with a 12v and 5v power supply. I set the fans on top the radio for cooling and ran them at 5 volts so they were nice and quiet.

I bought the radio new in Minneapolis October 27, 1973.

I am asking $495 for the whole package.

You can contact me by e-mail (good in QRZ).
