Once again, the legal system penalizes the innocent and protects the guilty.
Today I spent $300 for an attorney to tell me that my antenna destruction
incident is a rock solid case, but cost prohibitive to pursue. I can not recover
any legal fees or associated costs from the guilty parties and the costs
associated with a civil suit against them to recover the damages will easily
exceed the total of the damages. Yes, I could beat them in small claims court,
but would probably never collect a cent. 	
	
Simply put, I win, but end up paying more than I can collect, if I ever collect
it.	
	
I am so disgusted, that I have decided to sell my radio equipment. The joy I
felt is gone. My happy dreams have been transformed into nightmares by
irresponsible neighbors. Their blunders have already cost me nearly two thousand
dollars, and that is money I can not afford to be throwing away when I am on a
fixed income. 	
	
As many of you know, I do not use Hallicrafters for NCS operations. My vintage
gear is all used for listening. Hence, I will not list the solid state items, or
tube amplifiers, here. Write me direct for a list of that equipment and prices. 

	
When the three towers and nine antenna systems are taken down in June, I will
post them here for sale. I am keeping two short-wave antennas and several
receivers for SW listening. No Ham gear will remain.  	
	
Although I have never subscribed to the philosophy that Hell was actually here
on Earth, sometimes it does make one wonder -
