Collins 75A4 Receiver
The Collins 75A-4 is a high quality
amateur band receiver covering the
frequency ranges of 1.5-2.5, 3.2-4.2,
6.8-7.8, 14-15, 20.8-21.8, 26.5-27.5,
28-29 and 29-30 MHz. It has a double
conversion, crystal controlled front
end for high stability and good image
rejection. It has a permeability tuned,
sealed master oscillator for accurate
dial calibration. It utilizes mechanical
filters for outstanding selectivity.
Other features include passband tuning,
crystal calibrator, mute line, noise limiter
and Q-multiplier. The radio's controls are
very easy to use. There is a backlit S meter.
All lights work. It requires a speaker.
17.25 x 10.5 x 15.5 inches 35 lbs.
This one has been partially restored. Several
capacitors have obviously been replaced. I have
listened to signals on it. No hum. But it needs
more work. Cosmetically it is OK, but not collector
quality.
Buy it for $300 SOLD

Mechanical Filters for Collins 75A4
I have a pair of Collins mechanical
filters that were used in a Collins
75A4 receiver. They have been tested,
and both work well. These plug into
the 9 pin socket behind the front panel
of the 75A4. It is quite likely that
they can be used in other receivers as
well.
300 Hz filter for narrow CW
9000 Hz for AM
Each filter is $195. Buy both of them
for $375.
.
Cover for Collins 75A4 Receiver
This is a very nice cover to put over a
Collins 75A4 receiver to keep it in really
nice shape. The cover has nice protective
cloth on the inside, and a sort of vinyl
on the outside, along with the nice 75A4 logo.
It has a rear flap; this allows you to
leave the coax, power cables etc., connected
to the radio when the cover is on it.
This is just the thing to keep your 75A4 in
excellent condition.

Knobs for Collins 75A4 For Sale:
These knobs are for a Collins 75A4
receiver, although I am sure that
they can be used on other ham rigs
as well.
Both are made by Daka-ware, Chicago,
and appear to be new. The smaller,
1 5/8 inch knob, is still completely
sealed, so is new for sure. The
larger 3 inch knob is in a zip lock
bag, so I can not confirm that it is
new, but it certainly looks like it.
Both of these were in a box from a
silent key marked as 75A4 parts.
