Pictured here is Les WBOKFK of D&L Antenna serving a customer at the ARK-BARK in Bellevue NE on Saturday 02 October. He has antennas and all kinds of needed parts like PL connectors and Coax Seal. Typically 6 or 7 tables full.

One guy had three, like new, Weller soldering guns for real reasonable prices. OK, not suitable for modern 64 pin ICs, but anything older you might fix with one of these. I’ve had mine, a dual heat model (100/140 Watts) since the 1970s or earlier, almost a lifetime. Rather than BUY new tips I make them out of a piece of #12 wire. Works great.

Notice here the COLLINS linear on the left table, and at the next one, John ABOVX who sold us the ‘cans’ for the Fusion repeater at an advantageous price.

They didn’t say how much they wanted for the Collins. Big name brand. $$$$

OK, here are the twins. No, not the guys (first one is a guy, and on right is Ray N5SEZ from Bellevue). The radios. TWO (2) like new Hallicrafters SX-111 receivers. Seller said one was just back from servicing – new capacitors etc. State of the art in 1960. Two hundred ($250) fifty bucks; 13 tubes; Ham bands only; AM/CW/SSB modes and selectivity 5kc down to 500 cycles. Also rxs WWV on 10 Mc. Here’s a closeup. (lighting was poor in room) Was the asking price $200?
