Greetings folks. Lost my father in 2006 and just getting around to cleaning out some of his hobby stuff. He bought this stuff new back in the late 70's and boxed it away in early 80's to never be used again. What I have is:
President Washington-Base, AM-SSB Transceiver with Astatic Corp. Golden Eagle Mic (Chicken-Choker as I think it is commonly referred to)
President Grant-Mobile, AM-SSB Transceiver with built in Linear Amplifier installed aftermarket (foot warmer as I believe it is referred to) no idea on wattage
The Squire 125 Electronics Unlimited Lebanon, TN - Linear Amplifier Base Unit (foot warmer)...no idea on wattage
Really need your help to get a rough estimate on what value I should consider these items as I am ready to put them on either Craig's List or Ebay.
Thanks very much. I know my father really enjoyed using these items...he was a member of a couple of radio clubs (GM and another that escapes me) at one time. I am brand new to this forum so please excuse my ignorance on this subject, including use of a forum like this.
Regards,
Greg

Re: HELP! President SSB Equipment Value Estimate
Ive never heard of the linear myself,however,the radios are top shelf in my opinion.Depending on the condition of the radios,they are valued at 150.00 to 250.00 dollar range combined.Ive seenthem go for about 125.00 a piece,but like I said,that is for cherry radios.The radios are really good stuff,And I would not part with them if I where you,the washington is a very good ssb radio,with the right mods it can be a real screamer with that linear,I had one with a penatrator 250 linear and talked all over the country and a couple of times overseas.The grant is one of the most popular radios ever made by uniden,very sought after radio.I hope I was helpful.Good luck.
