Description
You are bidding on an antenna base for the PRC-9, -9A, -10 and -10A transceivers - see photos.
There are several. Tell me how many you want so I can produce an appropriate invoice for you.
All original equipment manufactured components are present. The smaller threaded section is for the AB-272 short whip antenna, while the larger base is for the longer AB-129 plus AB-271 telescopic antenna. The larger base includes a switch actuated by screwing in the AB-129 long antenna base.
The switch is the point of failure, particularly in humid, dirty conditions. As you cannot dismantle the switch inside the moulded base, you need to replace the whole base.
You can
I started collecting PRC-9, -9A, -10 and -10A transceivers intending to use them on the radio amateur bands. The PRC-9 and -9A can cover the amateur 10-m band, but few radio amateurs use FM in the 10-m band. The PRC-10 and -10A can cover the amateur 6-m band, but much amateur radio communication is via repeaters with a receive / transmit frequency offset that makes these transceivers difficult to use.
I have now sold my PRC-9, -9A, -10 and -10A transceivers. So, I no longer need spares.
Packaging
I make no charge for packaging. Your item will be properly wrapped and packed to withstand the usual rigors of postal and courier delivery systems.

- There are often differences between what Australia Post's and other carriers' online calculators show, and what they actually charge. Generally, Australia Post uses the quickest delivery method, such as one of the more expensive Air Mail modes.
- Australia Post calculates postage based on the weight and dimensions I have given. Sendle calculates postage based on the same weight and dimensions.
- If you win several items, I will bundle them to get you the most economical shipping charge.
