Amateur Radio Base Station (IC706 MkII, RS-35A, MFJ-949 Deluxe Tuner). This is a total base station, with power source, transceiver, and tuner.

The power supply (Astron RS-35A) and tuner (MFJ Deluxe Versa Tuner II, MFJ-949E) are used in good condition, haven't had any modifications since being taken out of the box, and any damages which may have been incurred in its appearance have not caused deviation from a new unit. It's used, like new. The Icom IC706 MkII has a similar case, only, it was bought used and thus I cannot attest to any defects it may have had prior to. However, in my experience of owning this radio for at least two years, it will receive in all the bands it's supposed to (HF - 199MHz), and the only defects it has are cosmetic, as well. The only major defect was caused by me, and that was to have the power poles wired for the power supply.

The bare copper was exposed on the IC706MkII's power lines, and use with other power supplies may require fitting new power pins or connectors. Otherwise, operation (as shown in the picture) works just fine. The transceiver has been disconnected from the power supply. The tuner is included, because the IC706MkII will not transmit with an SWR from the transceiver to the antenna of more than 2:1. The tuner will tune "most antennas, " and was able to tune my Shark Antennas 40M HamStick antenna so well that it melted a portion of it. The 80M I bought is tougher to tune, but this tuner got it done in most instances.

Included for free is a SignaLink fit for this specific model. It's been automatically configured for the HF band, and includes all cables (DIN 13 to RJ-45, USB-A to USB-B) along with the coaxial cables meant for the transceiver to the tuner and to tuner to antenna. I can't transmit in an apartment building for fear of interference, and I want to move into another hobby soon.
