AC-1T Clone Kit Build

An Ameco AC-1T replica kit is available from The New Ameco, a business run by Kostadin Stojanov, KY6AA. Kosta is extremely helpful, a model ham.

Original AC-1T Manual, (not from clone kit).

Here are photos of a few of the steps from unboxing to smoke test!

The excitement of opening the box!

Some nice and unexpected perks are a company pen,

a QSL card from Kosta,

and replica Ameco boxes!

First thing is removing paint around mounting holes. I used a Dremel tool.

Next, is placing decals and clear coating.

Work under way.

Completed transmitter! (Amphenol coil form rather than PVC.)

The warm glow.
