Description: Polycomm 6 Transciever Ham Radio https://www.radiomuseum.org/r/polytronic_poly_comm_6.html A must have for the emergency prepared person. Gonna need something like this to communicate with others out just for fun. Make me an offer! Designed for the 6 meter ham radio band, the Poly-Comm 6 Transceiver can be crystal-controlled or used with its built-in VFO. The transceiver was manufactured by Polytronics Lab Inc. of Clifton, New Jersey. With its built-in vibrator, it can be operated from either 115 volts AC or 12 volts DC. The set's 16 tubes include 3 nuvistors as cathode-coupled RF amps and as mixer. RF output was specified at 10 watts. Two 6BQ5 audio tubes are used for plate modulation. Price was $319.50, relatively steep for 1962-63. A review can be found in the April 1963 issue of QST magazine. The review notes, "the transmitter stability being as good as will be found in any but the very best VFO transmitters on 50 Mc .... Receiver sensitivity is adequate and the selectivity is all that one could use comfortably in mobile or casual home-station operation." Power output specs The RF output tube for the Polycom 6 is a 7551 with a rated RF output of about 10 watts. I measured actual output into a 50 ohm dummy load variously between 9 and 10 watts, close enough given the accuracy of my meter. Ok Unable to test as is
