[SARES] FREE Surplus Electronic Equipment

Dear SARES group,

 

My 88 year old Father, Tom Monahan, has become very ill and will no longer
be able to maintain all the old electronic equipment that he has been
acquiring since my childhood.  I can't even describe what half of the
equipment is for and whether it would be of any use to anyone.  It does not
include ham equipment, other than lots of receivers.  My Dad would always
fall asleep with a headset on and hams talking from around the world in his
ears.  He always wanted to be a ham, but his dyslexia made it very hard for
him to pass the test, (though he was a communications man in the Navy and
learned Morse code.)  He was very proud when I became a ham and was able to
talk to him on the radio, though he could never respond.

 

This Friday afternoon, Aug 11th, my husband Don (KD6QQR) and I (KB6VLK) will
be going over to Capitola to clear out his bedroom of a very large amount of
equipment.  I will be throwing it away unless anyone wants to come over and
claim any of it for free.  If you are interested, please give me a call for
directions to my Dad's house.  If anyone knows of a place to properly
dispose of old electronic equipment, I would appreciate that information,
too.  Pass this onto any of your ham friends you think might be interested.

 

Sincerely,

 

Pat Jocius, KB6VLK
