Hi Club,
I'm in the market for a relatively simple amp as a backup. 160-10 would be nice and at least 700-800 watts. An AL80, SB1000, or anything similar would be great.
Anyone have one collecting dust that they would be willing to sell?

 Hi Everyone,
FYI,

I told Chuck K4HF, about our discussion last night about restaurants.?
He checked with both places for a possible RARS dinner meeting.? ?Manchester's and Chow.
He said Manchester's is not open for meetings because they don't have the staff to handle it. They have to hire and train people before they can go back to having that many people in the side room.?

Chow is ready to go. He made a reservation for a Tuesday dinner for RARS in August.?

Thanks for the info, Tom.

Some places have to change owners before they can get past some problems.
Just a gut lurch there...

Manchester's manager has been very good to us. Maybe September and school
starting again will have helped things. The other thing that has been going
on is that a lot of wait staff are area college students covering expenses.
They just haven't been around. September and would think return of the
college students would start to help out the wait staff shortage.

You meant first Thursday, right ? 

Guy had said Thursday, I thought.

I told Chows manager first Thursday. Was I wrong?

 Ted,
We did not make a reservation for PVRC.
Chuck did it for another club.
Its up to an officer in PVRC to make a reservation for PVRC.

Message-ID: <CAOpcFRFf9m6RxiiRdxoxrmxUx=ukZqJ0JYKpiKuUKBPV-ftdzw@mail.gmail.com>

After a year of not using these, it's time to find them a good home.
Offering to the local list first.

I had these all up and running for several years at the old QTH and just
don't have a great location for them here.  So everything was working when
I took it down in Nov 2019 and should still be in good shape.

AB-621 - this is the big daddy military crank-up mast.  Everything you need
except four ground anchors (get the big ones at Tractor Supply).  10 5'
sections, 3 sets of snubber-based guys and guy rings, top mast stub.
Bought from Ontario Surplus in 2015 for $3200.

SteppIR 3 element Yagi with 40M trombone, controller and about 200'
(guessing) of controller cable.  Will include a nice heavy duty mast that
works with the Tailtwister.  Bought new at same time as AB-621.

Tailtwister rotator with DCU-3 controller.  Also bought new in 2015.

919-349-1741 or rarcher at tourstar.net

Hi everyone,
How much are used Eimac?3-500z worth?
I have two that I bought used years ago. I was told they came from a Kenwood amp that was damaged in shipment and replaced.
The tubes were shipped separately. They are in original Emic tube boxes. The date on the shipping tag is July 1983. I don't know if the tubes match that date or not.
I put them in my Ameritron AL-82 December 2018 and used them for a few days.? So I know they are still good.
The serial numbers are?SN OZ-1519 and?SN OZ-2185.

Hi Tom -

I'd say $100 (plus or minus) depending on the condition. The Eimac brand
might get you a little more money out of them. You would probably sell that
pair easily for $225 (shipped) on QTH.COM.

Soapbox:  Let's do the math.  Five hours.  No DX.  No significant
openings.  No band full of signals.  Not a single CW signal heard.  Not a
single SSB signal heard.  Not many answers to countless CQs.  Was it fun?
What do you think?  But I did hear the pipes and answered the call.
