or read G0ozs's web site at: https://g0ozs.co.uk/mdwiki/clansman/#prc319.md
The 319 is a fixed frequency, channelized HF radio, so there is no tuning around.
It runs CW, SSB or Data at 5W or 50W.
If you want to borrow it, i will send you the PRC319 Loan Agreement.
When it becomes available, i will notify you and you will then send me $100
for initial shipping. You must pay the shipping both ways (about $200 total).
I will refund any excess shipping fees.
You can borrow it for up to 90 days.
Sorry, no shipments can be made outside of the CONUS. (Not available to AK, HI, or PR).
The radio kit comes with an EMU (Electronic Message Unit), Antenna Tuner, Handset, Satchel, Battery, Charger and an 8 foot whip.
It can only ship UPS because of the LiIon battery restrictions.
You must have a General or higher class FCC license and be listed in the FCC data base.
This 319 was donated to the '319 Loaner Program' by Clare Owens Jr, N2RJB, Apex, NC. and accessories by Al G8LIT.
