Title: Heathkit HD1250 solid state dip meter
Post by: k7rmj on December 11, 2016, 12:00:48 AM

The mailman was really good to me today. I bought the Heathkit HD1250 on eBay and it arrived. It is in great shape, has all the coils and it works! I had to put a new 9V battery in it but the old one did not leak. There was a number if pieces of foam tape inside it for padding the battery to keep it from rattling around that turned to dust when I touched it. So that will need to be replaced too as soon as I find some. I am really tickled about this dip meter. It will be a huge help with my antennas. Building and restoring old antennas is my favorite part of ham radio.

Will post some pics as soon as I figure out how to get them from my tablet computer to the main computer LOL. I need another cable. My tablet is not networked at all. I only use it for reading books.
