As many of you know, Dave N6RZ, passed away recently. Jim, K9YC, is
assisting in the sale of Dave's equipment. There is a nice 432 yagi
along with a couple of HF monobanders still unspoken for. Contact Jim
directly if interested.

We've heard from the former owner of the big 10M antenna that it's a
Telrex 10M1044, 10 elements on a 44 ft boom. It was last used at K6EBB,
a contest station on the ridge near Dave, and has been stored on the
ground ever since. This looks like a superb antenna, quite robust, and
it deserves a good home. It looks to be in good shape, except that we
managed to slice a bit of the gamma match while freeing it from a tree
that had grown up around it. The damage is not structural, and is easily
repairable.
The big 15M monobander is also still available. 8 elements, long boom,
also quite robust. I'm told that some hardware needs to be replaced.
There is also a very nice 432MHz antenna that is not spoken for. 23
element Yagi on a long boom. Surely one of our UHF crowd could make good
use of this antenna. I'd buy it myself, but I'm on the wrong side of the
ridge to work UHF. :)
Make a reasonable offer on these antennas, pick them up when you come to
help take down the tower. That work is not yet scheduled.
