HL-2000A

AT-1500

• In the early 1980's we also produced Hammond R.F. linear amplifiers for Amateur (Ham) Radio use. Naturally tube type, built for continuous duty, powered by Hammond "iron" & housed in Hammond enclosures. We stopped production over 25 years ago. Even now folks are still asking about them (many are still in active use today).Two versions of two different models were produced:
  • The HL-2000 (later became the HL-2000A - link to full data page) using two 3-500Z tubes.
  • The HL-1000 (later became the HL-1000A) using a single 3-500Z tube - designed to be a more economical version of the more powerful HL-2000A.
• Offered with this series of R.F. amplifiers in the 1980's, were high power antenna tuners the AT-1500 & 2KW low pass R.F. filters (HF-1000LP)...
• In the 1960's we sporadically offered the HL-500 (87K photo), HL-700 and HL-750 linear amplifiers too. They used quad 811-A output tubes. Not only using Hammond "iron", RF chokes and enclosures BUT also using our then available, air variable condensers (PDF - 239K). Very little data on these amplifier models has survived...
• Looking for specs. on one of our older transformers?

	Our oldest known catalog G-48 (PDF 5.1 MB) from 1935 (Thanks to Bruce MacMillan & SPARC for finding & scanning this)
	Or interested in a travel back in time, to perhaps the peak of the radio era? Download our 1950's Catalog #65, we even gave transformers their own names!!! Transformer Section (25 pages) of Catalog65.pdf (6.2 MB)

• In the late 1930's we designed audio amplifiers using our transformers & enclosures. Thanks to Bill Crowther (of Winfield, B.C.) for locating these schematics & sending them to us. Interesting to see a note on the 1247 & 1245 diagrams regarding 25 or 60 cycle power use!
  • 7 watt amplifier - PDF file - Diagram 1247 (74K )
  • 15 watt amplifier - PDF file - Diagram 1229B (73K)
  • 60 watt amplifier - PDF file - Diagram 1245 (92K)
• We also made audio amplifiers & battery eliminators (again combining our enclosure & transformer skills) in the 1920's! Check out a few pages from the fascinating Aikenhead's Radio Catalog (1929-1930) (PDF file 934K) - an early Toronto, Ontario distributor of our products.
