Ten Tec Jupiter w/antenna tuner

Posted Wed, 05/02/2018 - 3:57pm by wa7hdz

I have for sale, a Ten Tec Jupiter w/ built-in antenna tuner.
It includes:
1. Ten Tec power supply, Model 963. (w/schematic).
2. Ten Tec desk microphone, Model 706.
3. Jupiter Manual (w/schematics).
4. Optional Ten Tec heavy-duty fan. Model 310. (Removable)
5. VHS video: introduction to the Jupiter.

It has never been upgraded since I bought it. Mainly, because shortly after I bought it, Ten Tec came out with some upgrades, that I would have had to send the unit in to completed. i.e. CW Decoder. more Memory, and a different colored display.

I am asking $600.00 for it. If interested e-mail me at:
