WARRANTY NOTES

Andrews Communications provide a one-year warranty period on Alinco amateur radio transceivers, batteries and accessories which we sell new!

 Warranty covers only faults in parts or workmanship. Warranty cover is not insurance cover, of course!

Customer-caused or environment caused damage is not covered by warranty, of course!

A valid sales receipt copy must accompany each warranty claim.
Include your name, address, email and phone number.

Andrews Communications has been super-successful in servicing Alinco products (to over 99% success) for 45+ years! No competitor can claim such a long and successful record.

 PARTS/REPAIRS TO DX-70TH

We just received some more "hard
to get" parts for Alinco's DX-70TH very popular and remotable 100W
all-mode transceiver. These parts may well be the last of their type obtainable from Alinco and USA.
These parts are NOT for outright
sale as we ordered them with the intention of continuing to repair
Alinco's discontinued but high performance DX-70TH transceiver. So, if you have a faulty DX-70TH
and would like it repaired then
please contact us. We often don't charge for a quick assessment to determine if your DX-70TH is economically possible to repair.
These DX-70TH parts include RF output stage FETs, multi-function
rotary switches, remote control
plug and lead assemblies, band
pass filter boards, etc.

 ***********************

  Please choose products carefully.
Please ask us their suitability as
lately we've noticed more & more
customers are ordering incorrect, non-matching/unsuitable products
for their application and/or performance expectations.
Please use high quality, regulated
and filtered power supply with
your new transceiver! Lately,
we've noticed increasing numbers
of amateurs are employing old,
low quality, poorly regulated, inadequately filtered and/or
insufficiently current rated AC to
DC power supplies with their new transceivers! Newer transceivers,
which are becoming increasingly
digitised (SSB transceivers in particular), are highly susceptible
to RF intrusion and the receiving
of RF interference from poorly
designed & inadequately filtered power supplies!!
    
 

FREIGHT & INSURANCE NOTES

Please note that ALL Alinco transceivers listed on this page are amateur radio transceivers and as such require an amateur radio license for legal operation. We do NOT custom engineer any radios to operate in any special applications, such as on hang- gliders, pushbikes, motorbikes...

A valid sales receipt copy must accompany each warranty claim.
Include your name, address, email and phone number.
