Well, it was a smaller event than Sarcons of the past, but there was a lot of people there and plenty of stuff.
There are people on this group looking for signal generators and there were several to choose from. A pair of AVO HF135 ones, were both on the same stand with a label saying 'make an offer, both working' I bought a number of clip-on ferrites at £1 each An HP1840 100MHz oscilloscope which was running and seems to be fully working £45 A Racal Dana automatic LCR bridge A few HP GPIB controlled VHF switches for work A few RSGB RAE books for the radio club. A large callsign map A new 22AH 12v deep discharge battery and charger I think I've been suffering from radio rally withdrawal symptoms! David |

Hi David,
Yes, plenty of stuff and I think a smaller turnout than last year. I won a copy of this years RSGB Callbook in the raffle :) Also picked up a DATA I/O 60A 'Logic Programmer' for... free - however, it's missing most of it's pods so not sure if it will be much use. I did buy some small alloy 'project boxes' with telescopic antenna (used to be something else). So, a good day out overall. Andy |
Re: Scottish convention
Ah, you told me the price was irresistably zero. I just thought the plastic case looked good...
Nadine (wife of GM3SEK) won not one but three bottles in the raffle. When they were parked on Ian's table I joked that it looked like the raffle table had been moved. I wouldn't have bought anything like as much stuff if my car hadn't been so close to the main door. David |
