Mizuho MX-28S

So I've had this idea, I have a few bits of HAM radio gear that I consider interesting, I'm sure some other people will also (I'm equally sure others will find it boring) So I've decided publish a few pictures and comments on my blog.

First up is a Mizuho MX-28S I've had this radio for around 13 years or so now, Its a crystal controlled 10 meter hand held, output 2 watt, Mizuho made a series of these radios for different bands, info can be googled.

Here are a few pictures of mine.
Sports a real S meter! the 1000MP does not even have that :-)



The two cystals can be seen in above picture on the Right side, they can be changed to various sections of 10 meters giving 50khz per crystal.
Batterys go in round the back 6 1.5V AA cells or 7 rechargable cells.




10 meters is often closed so with a monoband radio having a pack of cards close by is essential! :-)




If anyone has a MX-24S or a MX-18S they would like to sell, please contact me!
