[South Florida DX Association] Balloon flight Jan 2-3 planned to cross the Atlantic

[Douglas Michie Johnson]

Sorry to piggy back on Pete like this, but over the last four days I have
sent four emails to the list, and for some reason they haven't made it.  I
have three or four Tektronix 7704 A scopes in various stages of disrepair
that I no longer have the stamina or enthusiasm to fix.  There is also a
Mosley 67B beam that I bought after Andrew and never assembled.  I think it
is all there, but it has been a long time.  All of this is available free to
a good home.  It's not spam if it's free, is it?
