[BC] Collins 300-G pictures

[Bailey, Scott]

Yes, they are, they will ride in your trunk, or in the front seat of
your car. They don't weight over 50-75 lbs, so they are lite, you can
carry it yourself. The Armstrong box is just plug and play. The Antenna
connection is just a PL-259 and the audio in is XLR. You can have it on
in 30 minutes, but you may have to do some tuning at your ATU so you
won't have so much VSWR.
The Armstrong seems to be more forgiving on VSWR than the Nautel is.

I'm using an Armstrong X-1000B as a main and I'm louder & cleaner than I
was with the Harris (Gates One), which to me, that box is an old 80's
model of the SX-1.

Scott- those are the rack-mountable units, correct? I've been wanting
our 
Company to in vest in two of them to be used as "portable" emergency
backup 
transmitters for our 5 AM stations. (Two, because there are a number of
component 
changes/coil taps for each half of the AM band. We have a station on
760, the 
others between 1230 and 1590.) The idea being to toss one into the back
of a 
car and zip it down to the station in need... in the event of a major
failure, 
we'd be able to get back on the air in hours, at most, instead of days.

Willie...
