[Boatanchors] Neat place/information

[revcom at wbsnet.org]

This is not a commercial,  but more  of an informational item.

Was in Colorado Springs for holiday weekend, as usual looking
around at "junk" shops and found that the age old surplus store
in Colorado City had reopened.  To my dismay they had NO electronics
but the owner told us of another place I had never heard of.

It may have been on here before, hadn't seen it and maybe there
are those in the Springs area on the lists, dunno that either.
The place has been there a long time I guess.

However, we got directions and got there, Holy Cow!, only got about
30mins of time to look around as near closing time, but they had
rows and rows of stuff, tubes, meters, transformers, coax connectors,
molex connectors, transistors and IC's (blah), and zillions of other
stuff that made a BA junky drool.  Military and industrial surplus stuff.
Test equipment and cable assy's galore.

I got a couple of tubes and  a capacitor for a rebuild project, and was
cheep!  Next time, I know where it is now, I plan to take along a
list and spend some time there.  Saw MANY items that have been
requested here on the lists.

It is ---OEM Parts, Inc.
           2727 E Palmer Park Blvd
           Colorado Spings, CO 80907
           719-635-0771

If you get there, plan to spend some time, it is HUGE!
