John:

Here is a listing items that Tom has been trying to sell all summer, but
with no luck. He doesn't have radio capability of any sort, and shys away
from the Internet and e-mail. Could you run it in your Trader's Net summary?
Maybe it will be read by persons other than those who read the Club
newsletter.

Thanks, and Tom thanks you too.

                      BLUEGRASS AMATEUR RADIO CLUB (BARS)

The BARS club is soliciting contributions to enable replacement of hard line
and an antenna on the 146.760 repeater. The weather and age has taken it's
toll and the repeater has had very limited range for several years. It has
been an essential link for emergency operations and community projects
throughout the years and needs to be restored for reliable communications.
All donations are tax deductible. If anyone can point to a commercial
benefactor, all information will remain confidential unless otherwise
requested.
