2017 FWRC AUTION
AT ACARTS 2017 HAMFEST
The auction will take place at the Fort Wayne Hamfest on Sunday, November 19th with registeration starting at 9:30 am and the auction itself starting at 10:00 am.
For buyers, registration is necessary. The Auction is CASH only, no checks or credit cards. An ATM is available at the Coliseum.
All items are sold as is. Most items have been given a brief, cursory test to determine basic function, but not a long term test. I will be updating the list shown at the bottom for test results, if any. The list currently lists only the cosmetic condition of the gear.
Items for auction are from two Silent Key households, plus some additional items donated to the Fort Wayne Radio Club.
Please direct questions on the listed gear or photos to Steve Nardin, W9SAN, at w9san@arrl.net.
The following is list of the available equipment. Photos will be placed on the Fort Wayne Radio Club website at WWW.FWRC.INFO under the heading of Photos: 2017 Hamfest Auction. We will be uploading and upgrading photos and the general list as we go.
Here is a listing of the equipment currently offered:
