Local equipment for sale

I gave up Amateur Radio about 20 years ago and sold up my station and voluntarily suspended my licence. However I kept some 2 metre equipment in storage. I am now selling remaining items ( as below) on Ebay and local amateurs may be interested that any successful bids from the Island will receive the equipment with no delivery charge added.

A trip to the Tower!

Andy GD1MIP has been offered the chance to organise a group of members to visiting what will shortly be the 'old' Control Tower at Ronaldsway Airport. You will be able to have a look at the equipment, i.e. radar, radio, etc. What time/date would anyone/everyone be interested in going along "for a skeet"? Please let us know @ blog@iomars.com
