Panter XTL5000 CHIB -- Anyone Tried?

Post by W6WAW »

Has anyone used the Panter XTL5000 CHIB that he lists for $35? My application would be an O3 head.

Thanks.

Should work OK as long as you have the older O5 front half... if you have the newer one they won't talk to one another. Look for Batdude's post on it... I think the cutoff date is circa mid-2005.

Thanks. I will check it out.

I know where I can order a nice new one locally if need be! I may end up doing that depending on the of the control head.

Bend over and lube up if you want to order one. if you have an old head (1463 CHIB) the new one's won't work.
I have some of both for sale... go search in for sale...
