Free to a good home!

Wilson SY-33 Tri Band Trapped Yagi (10-15-20M).  Purchased new in 1977
by W4OKW in Jax FL.  Survived two hurricanes.  Survived a sea voyage to
Spain in 1979, never installed in EA7 land. Survived another sea voyage
to Pax river in 1984.  No antennas allowed in Wildewood, so I sold it to
Gordon, KA3COO (SK).  Installed on 50 feet of Rohn 25 and it served him
faithfully until a couple of years ago, when Gene Talley and several of
us took it down.  Gordon's wife, Alice, was moving to DC and thought the
house would sell better without all the hardware in the sky! SMCARA to
the rescue and Alice gave it to the club.

Everything is there, albeit the hardware is rusty. Clean it up, get
stainless steel hardware, and work lots of DX.

I have the manual on CD.

How many antennas or bits of ham gear come complete with history?
