Default Re: Very interesting auction of communications equipment

Very interesting auction catalogue. The reasons why these auctions exist is sad but gives chance for others to appreciate what must have been very interesting and special items for the original owner.

They do however make me think about how I should approach my hobby. I have for a time thought that the right way for me is to keep only the items that I need (specific pieces of test equipment) to resurrect the old sets, and let these sets pass through my hands having owned and appreciated them for a short-ish time, rather than just accumulate them with little chance of giving each the attention it deserves. One radio / record player / hi-fi per room is my limit.

So basically, although there are some tasty items there I am happy to scroll on by.
