[Boatanchors] A visit to Fair Radio - photos

Some neat stuff but not all.  There stuff, to me, is so over priced it does 
not make sense to buy from them unless you have deep pockets or are needing 
something for a museum.  Surplus is great for experimenters and as a means 
of saving money.  I don't see where they provide such a service in most 
cases today.  A few years ago, yes.  I wish this were not true.  It seems 
like whenever I am building something I do not buy from them because it does 
not make economic sense to do so.  At least not for the projects I 
construct.  I guess if you need some weird item nobody else wants,  you 
might be able to buy it from them at an affordable price.  In short, I enjoy 
looking at their stuff, but rarely buy any of it due to their price tags. 
Maybe they have to charge those prices based on their overhead, but that 
does not change things from my vantage point.
