Another surprise while digging out gear for the Dennis Karski Memorial
Hamfest this weekend. Two military canvas rolls marked "ADCOCK ANT"
which between them have three HF verticalantennas approx 22 feet high
(assembled). The base has a 5" spike for the ground and an N connector.
No guy wires or cables, just the three verticals. Beautifully made and
looking almost new.
This Adcock antenna was stuffed in the rafters of the garage with a
tangle of VHF, UHF and microwave antennas and a sturdy folding portable
aluminum military tripod approx 5 foot tall with legs spanning a 9 foot
circle (I should have taken a picture) perfect for a field operation.
In the basement there are several more DF units, three of them OAR units
to bring the total to five OAR units. Dennis was into direction finding
in a big way and there are documents I found and scanned from his
collection that I'll post after I recover from the work of getting this
sale going.
There are also briefcases with magnet transmitters and a receiver for
vehicle tracking, night vision stuff, and several briefcases built for
who knows what missions.
And parts! So many RF parts, modules (Mini-Circuits, Avantek, Anzac,
Watkins-Johnson, Merrimac...) , subassemblies, cables, connectors,
adapters, tools...
This is going to be amazing. The Dennis Karski Memorial Hamfest.
Saturday and Sunday, October 23 & 24, 9 am to 5 pm. 7593 Chapel Hill
