The good thing was it did not Rain all day and there, had about equal periods of mist and rain and sunshine with the majority of time being between weather. Saw ARC-5 tipple racks for $55 and $60 each, a Sunair GSB900 with cables, microphone and manual for $500 and a gray RAB and URC-9 for $200 each, BC-342 with mount for $125 and a RAB for $100 along with an old BC-608 and RT-67 for less and at William Perry space along with all type of connectors , plugs and assorted parts were several ARC-5 receivers and transmitters in the $30 to $40 price range. Did see an unmodified TU-10 for $40; remember when they were as common as dirt? Only one I saw today.  Two Harris radios , a RF-350 for $1,200 and a RF-590 for $1,750 I am planning on making an offer on the 590 tomorrow but don’t think I have the money it takes to buy one of them, have my PRC-119for local operation on the six meter net and may have to think about selling that to pay for the Harris. Speaking of big money radios Murphy’s surplus is here and they had plenty of state of the art and high end radios to look at and drool over. In the other end of the spectrum saw one person selling two BC-348 receivers, one Q and one M without cases for $50 for both and two R-390A receivers that were not working for $200 each, all four were gone by the time I went back by in the afternoon.  Collins KWM-2A were selling for around $600 with a slew of 51J receivers from $375 to $700 range with a R-388 for $400 along with a HF-8054 for $1,200 also saw a ugly RCA Radiomarine receiver for $85 and a R-390 not “A” for $500, same seller had a BC-348 for $75 and one of the old Nems Clark vacuum tube telemetry receivers for $75. Saw one SRR-11 for $150 and a lot of other stuff that I did not get the price for. There were at least three SP-600 receivers with one being as much as $700, don’t know why they are big money receivers speaking of that there were two Racal RA-17 receivers, one for $400 and the other for $1,700
