[Milsurplus] Ladd Electronics in Omaha closiing. radios need rescued.

[Patrick Jankowiak]

this needs to be acted on pretty fast, guys.

I'm not sure how appropriate this is for this forum, but I thought if
anyone would be able to take advantage of this, and no one else does, it 
would be one of you guys.

Ladd Electronics in Omaha, NE, is closing down. At the age of 92, Frank
Ladd has decided that it is time to retire. Like many such businesses
today, eBay and the internet have been killing his business.

contact Frank at (402)556-3023

Frank has a warehouse full of vintage parts and equipment, and he was
supposed to be out of the building last month. Time is getting
critical, and they're talking dumpsters now. I've heard quotes such as
"$20,000+ worth of stuff", "enough to keep somone busy on ebay for
years", and you're gonna need a barn". I have NO IDEA what he has in
there (so don't email me asking), but over the years I have seen
everything from Collins (there, back on topic), Galaxy, Heath, Swan,
Clegg, WRL, Drake, Johnson, you name it, in his store. Word has it that
someone could offer Frank $2000 and take it all. Below is an email fron
Rich WA0ZQG on the subject:

Hi Jim:
.
   It's getting pretty close to too late
to do anything aobut it I think.  The
DEADLINE was this past month but it's
been extended to hte end of the year.
Got to have the stuff OUT OF THERE by
then.  Sad situation for Frank I think.
.
   His number is 402) 556.3023 at the store.

     rich

I've got no affiliation with Frank, nor do I have the money or space to
take advantage of this, I would just hate to see it all go to the dump.
