Got this email, the picture will not come through, but this is a partial list of gear that somebody up in that area needs to be rescued. I can get details and an email if anybody is interested.
Here are the first two pictures of a SWL/collector radio hoard somewhere in Quebec Canada
(supposedly there are more pictures of other racks coming - Collins, Drake, Swan rigs, etc)
It’s the old story - fellow died, family doesn’t want any of it and just wants the building empty ASAP
One ham who lives 4 hours away is trying to assist the estate but doesn’t know boatanchors (but does know Collins and Drake :-)
I’m trying to help him understand there is value in the rest and that we need to find a local club and hamfest or enterprising individual to save this gear and get some value out of it for the family
