Subject: [ILHam] OFFER: Misc Items Looking For New Homes
Message-ID: <00bb01d07b98$6797a020$36c6e060$@com>
Cleaning out the shack and have the following items free for the taking.
- Over the years I've accumulated three Kantronics KAM All Mode TNC's. Two
are not working, the third might be working. I've got cables and manuals
galore.
- An old-er 2.5amp Pyramid Regulated P/S model PS-3K. belongs to a buddy
who tells me it keeps blowing the 1.5-amp chassis fuse.
- A RadioShack 7-Channel Weather Alert receiver. It receives but does not
alert.
If interested please contact me via e-mail at n9dko at arrl.net . I'd prefer
to give all of this to one person but will split. Pickup only or I can meet
you somewhere. If no takers soon it's all going into recycle. I'm in
Wheaton, IL, west suburban Chicago.
'73,
rich, n9dko
I'd start lifting weights...but i figure if something's heavy it must be
nature's way of telling me not to pick it up.
