Amateur Radio Charity Sale
Liz, the daughter of Richard Bailey (G3WCQ, formerly G8AJY), gave me his old radio equipment. We agreed I would see if anyone at the club is interested in it.
I plan to attend the "Castles on the Air - Kenilworth" this Friday (19th July) and can bring some of the equipment with me.
Email me if you are interested in any of it. Pay what you think it is worth (cash, bank transfer, bitcoin accepted, contact me for details). If more than one person is interested then bidding will start (through me and using email). I will update this page with current price and the callsign of who has the highest bid.
All proceeds will go directly to MacMillan Cancer Support in the name of Richard Bailey as requested by his widow June.
If you want to ask questions about the equipment send me an email via the contact section of this website.
