Subject: [CQ-Contest] K4JNY/W4PA superstation for sale .... whole or
in parts
Jeff, K4JNY, has taken a new job in California starting almost
immediately. The contest station at his QTH in Georgetown, TN that
we have spent the last 8 years building and using will either have to
be sold in the short term intact or it all will have to be torn down
in preparation for the sale of the land and house in the immediate
future.
The house itself is a small Cape Cod built in 1999 located on 5 acres
of land on a hilltop about 25 miles northeast of Chattanooga, TN.
Jeff is asking under $150K for the house, land and station INTACT
less rigs and amplifiers - which I have agreed to go along with
should an interested amateur want to buy the place. The station as
it stands today has 4 towers at 120', 90', 60', and 40'.
Stacked monobanders on 10/15/20 meters plus extra multiplier
monobander high band antennas on separate towers, a 4 el KLM 40m with
all W0UN mods plus all DX Engineering hardware at 120' plus a
separate 2 el 40 on a different tower, 2 el phased delta loops on 80,
160m antennas, multiple Beverage receiving antennas.
Mostly hardline fed, many rotators, this is a complete ready-to-use,
super-competitive contest station. Contact Jeff at k4jny at yahoo.com
direct.
Should the station not be sold intact, I will be removing all towers,
antennas, rotators, cables, etc. and virtually 100% of it will be
sold as I do not intend at this time to build another contest station
in Tennessee. Jeff and I would most like the station to be sold
as-is; but if it is not possible I'm ready to sell it piece by piece
to whomever the next in line is to take their shot at contest gold.
On behalf of Jeff and myself (and I'm saying this without him hearing
it from me first), thank you to the contest community for all the
help ALL OF YOU have provided us over the past 8 years of building
and using this station. An immense amount of time went into the
construction and use of this QTH; much advice was given to us that we
put to good use, and I hope that we have passed along as much to
others as we learned in the process. While I will no longer have a
contest station of my own, my interest in radio contesting continues
unabated. I'll see you on the air ... from somewhere.
Very 73
