[NJARC] Irb's (W2VJZ) Estate Sale

[john ruccolo]

Hi Pete,

A belated thank you for providing some local color
regarding Irb. I didn't realize the guy was such a
legend until I read some of the stuff on the web about
him. He led a fascinating life, and obviously did it
HIS way -- with lots of DX-100's. ;-)

The auction was a very interesting and fun experience.

Regards,

John
