[GreenKeys] Equipment

[Nick]

Heavy Metal transportation opportunity !!!

I am traveling next week and could transport some TTY equipment. Going to Amarillo TX with a full load but definitely have some room on the way back home.

Here is my rout: Dalhart TX, Amarillo TX, Oklahoma City OK, Little Rock AR, Memphis TN, Tupelo MS, Birmingham AL, Atlanta GA. We could meet at any exit at interstate 40, 22 or 20

I do not have room for any floor models  -  taking my wife's little zoom zoom.

Please let me know if I can help someone.

Nick  -  N0NCQ

Transportation often seems to be a big stumbling block. If people have some extra garage space to act as a temporary (less than 6 months?) storage depot, please let Paul and the list know. Maybe there is some way to get a machine to a "depot", then later to another "depot", and then on to its destination. The more depots we have scattered about, the more likely we can save some machines.

I'll start -
I can store some machines in Chapel Hill NC and likely transport to/from Richmond (Feb), Charlotte (Mar), Dayton (May), and Atlanta (Nov) hamfests.

Step right up, don't be shy!

Greetings fellow Greenkeyers.

We are approaching an interesting dilemma. Equipment is becoming available and there may be limited to no interest in it. What is the alternative? Dare I say the word — landfill?  And what if someone comes along in six months new to our group? They won’t be able to get anything if it is all “gone”.

Some of us (me included) are trying to save what we can for future members, tucking things away in our houses or storage sheds. But the scary reality seems to be that interest in mechanical hardware is fading. How many future members will there be? Will we get to a point where nobody wants this equipment that we hold in high regard?

To that end, I am volunteering to assemble a list of who wants what and try to get that to those who have equipment.  I’d like to start with whole items (teletypes, repress, modems/TUs etc) and NOT get into parts (copy holders, chad boxes, etc) at this time.

For those who are looking for something (whole items), I’d be glad to put on on this list and serve as a broker for those trying to dispose of equipment (including the estates of those who have passed on). Please feel free to contact me on or off-list with your wishes and indicate if you are wanting these times fully restored, in working condition, in unknown or not working condition (where you are planning to do the restoration work).
