Used Bird 43 meters are shipped  in either a original bird box or a, form fitting, cushion made with instapak quick foam in bags (in the US).   I use a dummy meter to form the foam so YOUR meter never sees the pressure or heat. Also included with every 43 are a dummy slug to protect the pointer (an active element is required for operation). Meters require elements.  The manual can be viewed and printed here http://www.bird-electronic.com/products/pdfs/opmanual/43.pdf  .  New meters are shipped in the bird box unless noted.  All meters ordered with a case are shipped it the case. I pack very well please check my ebay feedback ID = ka3art5.

I will swap QC connectors to what you need.  You must ask prior to shipping.

ALL

ALL Meters are TESTED at 25Watts on 2 meters (144MHz) with my TS-2000X and a 25C element or equivalent . 

Here is a photo of my test rack    Click it for a big view.

They are accurate as checked against my Bench 4410.

Prices are determined with a formula involving prior selling prices, current stock, and cosmetic condition.  

The letters in my item ID are for my reference to assure you get the correct item.   I often photograph several hundred element at a time. The only way to keep track of the element is with a unique item ID.  An item with AAA is not better or worse then an item with RRR, HHH, or ZZZ.  Nicer items of the same type are priced higher.

All elements are Guaranteed NOT DOA = Click for testing link

Stock changes quickly please verify the element is still in inventory before doing paypal.
