[Milsurplus] Ham ads DL - CQ 1949

[Bob kb8tq]

HI

To whatever extent surplus radio gear showed up here in the US, it also showed up 
a *lot* in places like Europe. It was already over there lying around :)  The cost of 
packing it back up and hauling it home ….. yikes ….. Even more so when “new in the
box” equivalents were sitting in warehouses “back home”. 

Just how any of it went from “government property” to “in my basement” always is an 
interesting sort of question. One would guess that dumpster diving was one of many 
ways it happened ….
