Is anyone here familiar with the Hawks AM Broadcaster?
It was a Part 15 transmitter until the maker dissolved in the 1990s.
I am seeking a schematic, manual and picture of the Hawks AM Broadcaster.
A web search gets buried in the hundreds of "hawks" sports teams and their affiliate stations.
Ebay my boy.
Word is they just had a Hawks on ebay, but we missed it.
Thanks for the link Artisan.
This is the first view for me of the Hawk transmitter.
That looks interesting and kind of odd, with the antenna coming out of the front. That looks like a completely tunable transmitter and you can set the frequency anywhere, that might be very old. I like the pull up mast though, where many transmitters come with a breakable wire antenna or need a big CB whip, where this would do for a quick broadcast.
I can see taking this to a park and setting up a little radio station on a picnic table, with an mp3 player and mic, with some headphones and do a broadcast right there. There was a tubed transmitter called the Knight, and took a phono and a mic, and it was all in one. They should make something like that again, but update it with new age digital circuits, DDS.
