[Milsurplus] [ARC5] Managing Yiour Colection, WAS Item 300447369243

[Ed White]

Hi Gang:
Well I have been reading the mail for some time What I have decided to 
do is give it all to a radio club (Pack Rats) and have them sell it off 
for my wife and some money for the club. I also have a younger ham that 
will handle the equipment to the club and that will give my wife a clear 
feeling that things are going to those that will be able to use them.

It has taken two years of spare time and a lot of trips to hamfest's and countless hours typing ebay descriptions. It netted $18,000 for the widow, for whom I was happy to do it. Bill and I had a long standing agreement that we would do this for the other if anything happened to one of us.
