N6KR spring cleaning -- parts and other electronics stuff free to good home

Hi all,

My prototyping is so specific to Elecraft products that part of my  
generic parts collection has been gathering dust in the attic. And my  
wife and kids wanted the attic space for thier stuff :)

Having cleaned out the attic, I now have several boxes full of very  
useful parts of every description, cable and wire, hardware, even some  
test equipment and power supplies, that I'd like to give away. This is  
a great collection of stuff for any home-builder. Parts include  
everything from transistors and ICs to small passives to air-variable  
capacitors. There are some "excess" Elecraft goodies, too, including  
some prototype mini-modules and a few surprise mystery units.

Trust me, it'll be like Christmas. Worst case: you keep half of it,  
and the rest goes to your local E-flea market.

I'm looking for someone within driving distance of Belmont, CA, who  
would like to take the entire lot. It'll fit in a car trunk. If you're  
interested, please email me directly.

Thanks for the bandwidth.

73,
Wayne
N6KR

Found a volunteer close by.

Thanks to all the rest who responded, even though I couldn't  
accommodate your ideas (pack up the stuff and ship it, photograph and  
list the cool stuff, wait until you swing by on your Thanksgiving  
visit to the Bay Area, etc.).

73,

Hey, what a deal!  Stuff is probably all gone by now and besides, it would be
silly to drive from the Seattle area down to Belmont for Wayne's stuff.  Let me
see, the truck gets 15 mpg and the trip is about 900 miles each way, and so
let's say a total of 2000 miles and an average price of gas of $3.80 means
the trip costs only about $500 in gas.  Of course, I will not drive there non-stop
so add another $250 for motel and meals.  And, since I might make use of the
city while there with a nice Italian dinner somewhere on North Beach area maybe
another $500 for hotel and meals for SF.  

So, Wayne, is the stuff close to being worth about $1250 or so?

Well, all I want is the KPA1500 prototype... does that count as a "surprise mystery unit?"

Wayne,

Let me know if your "buyer" doesn't work out. I'm in San Ramon and my folks live in Belmont, so I can shoot over easily.
