Never heard of a problem with the band switch....there are 9 people, in a group of u, that chat every morning on 75 and they/we all have 82's.
This a new 'issue' to me.
In any case, never had an issue with the band switch on this 82!

Best check the band switch prior to a sale, they are pretty much
unobtanium at a realistic price. As far as I know you need to order
direct from manufacturer of switch, they have a 5k minimum order amount
for new customers.

I am located in Reno, Nevada. I say this right off the bat as this

I have a 6 year old AL-82 legal limit amplifier to sell. I am pretty
sure it has a shorted 3-500z tube. I know it has a suspect T/R relay.
Rather than spend the money for 2 new tubes, I opted on purchasing a
new solid state legal limit amplifier (RF2K-S) from Island Amplifiers.

The AL-82 is for sale. I will include 3, new, T/R boards for the
amplifier. (AL-82¡¯s have known issues with the T/R relays, so to
make sure I would not have any parts availability issues, I just
bought 3.) It is also wired for 240v operation. I also have the
factory manual¡somewhere..if I can¡¯t find it, I will print out a
good copy.
It is a great amp, capable of well over legal limit, if that is your
bent. I found 500 watts was all I ever needed for my communications
and it just loafed along at that power.
In any case, I am asking $1200 for the amp and spare T/R relays.
Again, no shipping. I am handicapped and I can no longer take it
apart to ship.
Inquiry¡¯s can be sent to my email address above.
