Traded for this radio

[KG0MN]

I had owned one of these and sold it and of course the day afterwards I regretted it. So when this one came available I had to have it. It is 5-bands CW only with an output of 7 to 10 watts depending on the band. It also has the add-on keyer and digital display added. Here is the link to the makes web site.

OHR 500 CW TRANSCEIVER KIT

The radio retailed for $379.00 in kit form but sadly it is no longer offered.

Very nice, I never owned any of the OHR rigs. Always got sniped when bidding. Never see any at local fests.

the reason if I was to guess why you never see them is because they work great and sound even better on CW with no chirps at all.

I can honestly say that I had never seen even a picture of one of those until you posted that. Thanks for sharing...I saw something new today

I'd bid on it, but I cut my right index finger to the bone last week. Cut right into the first joint past the knuckle. Sliced the tendon and nerve.

My stupid finger curves to the right and is numb to the tip. I have to key with my 3rd and 4th finger when using a straight key. My paddle speed is unaffected as I always used right thumb and middle finger. It's a little weird picking my nose now, feels like someone else is doing it.

My CW activity has been diminishing lately anyways.
