[MRCA] Where do you find gear?

[Al Klase]

Hi Tom,

I was hoping some one would come forth with some wisdom on this 
subject.  Guess you'll have to settle for my ramblings.

It's easier on the coasts.  There are still a fair number of decent 
hamfests within driving distance of Jersey City.  In recent years, we've 
also learned that Military Vehicle Rallys are reasonable sources of 
electronics.  However, when you're a thousand miles from nowhere (sorry, 
not meant to be a cheap shot), the web may be your only hope.

In addition to Fair and E-bay there are others like Murphy Surplus, El 
Cajon, Ca. http://www.murphyjunk.bizland.com/
Ebay is OK for something you really want.

This list of vendors show up the other day, I haven't taken a good look:

You might also use web forums like this mailing and 
milsurplus at mailman.qth.net to state what your looking for and hope 
someone steps forward.

Also check out The Military Radio Collectors Group 
http://www.mrcgwest.org/  This is more of a West-Coast institution.

Regards,
Al
