I have the following classic receivers for sale:
Racal RA1778
Racal RA1792
Racal RA1795
Racal RA3791
All are immaculate and in excellent working condition. All will be supplied with the appropriate manuals, literature and rebuild/overhaul records where applicable.
The RA1778 was fully overhauled some years ago. It has new reservoir capacitors, a rewired PSU with PTFE cabling throughout and numerous other enhancements. It comes with a comprehensive set of spares.
The RA1792 is a very rare ex-GCHQ example. Its configuration is GP/S2/S/D/5/KA with 86880 firmware and an additional 100Hz CW filter. It also has a very high-grade roofing filter. The displays are excellent. This receiver also comes with a comprehensive set of spares and firmware.
The RA1795 is ex-RAF Digby. Its configuration is B1/JE/S3/D/F. This receiver exhibits a remarkable combination of sensitivity and strong-signal handling. Coverage is 20MHz-1GHz and modes are AM, SSB, CW, FM and Pulse.
The RA3791’s origin is not known but it appears to have been almost unused. It can be supplied with an ex-GCHQ DK-43 RTTY width indicator on request.
Recent measurements have been made on all these receivers and are available if required. Collection and demonstration are welcome, delivery is possible within the UK.
