These are more items from the Charles Stokes, N5GFX, estate of a local QRP
operator.
He was a fellow QCWA member, so I am helping the widow sort through the ham
shack, as she has the house up for sale, and has a 14 year old son to raise
alone. The estate has priced the items to clear, and from the response so
far, prices have been very reasonable to list members.
I am just the messenger, as it were. Payment will be by money orders made
out to the widow, plus postage for priority mail, or other means. So the
exact amount will depend on your location and how the books ship. As I am not
charging any administrators fee, this will have to be done in my limited spare
time outside of work.
Please be patient with us, as the location of the estate is remote from my
neighborhood, etc. I am getting donated boxes, and packing materials, so
sometimes have to wait for a box to be thrown out for my use.
To make it fair to Digest as well as "real time" list readers; I will take
replies the rest of this week, and then hold a drawing of names from a hat for
each book. I am still fulfilling the previous replies about magazines, so it
will take awhile to get the drawing done, as I must mail some archives of
magazines to those who selected them.
All these books are in remarkable condition; some of the oldest are like new,
(collectors items.) Any exception will be noted.
1. ARRL QRP Notebook, Doug DeMaw, W1FB $5 a classic
2. ARRL Antenna Book, 1982, the old thin style $10 another classic
3. ARRL Antenna Book, 1988, the new thick style (more material) $20
4. ARRL The Satellite Experimenter's Hand Book $10 (before software)
5. ARRL Technical Co-ordinators Manual $5
6. ARRL Operating Manual, new thick style. Some operating aids pages were
removed for operating table reference, and have been restored and book
repaired $15 obo "as is"
7. ARRL Amateur Radio Field Resources Directory pub. 1987 $10
8. ARRL classic red and black License Manual, 1971 ed., the colors/style the
way all ARRL books were once. Collectors item $5
9. ARRL Advanced Class License Manual 1990 $6
10. ARRL classic red and black, FM and Repeaters $5
11. ARRL , FCC Rule Book 1983, $5
12. & 13. ARRL, FCC Rule Book 1989, $5, two available
These books were in pristine condition on shelves of his air conditioned
shack. One whole wall was lined with magazine and books collections.
Send me your names and the name of the book you want on one line.
If you want another book, do the same on another line. That way, I can print
out your wants, and cut the strips apart with your name and a book name, to
put in the hat for the drawing.
Books are heavy, keep in mind the shipping by Priority Mail, (suggested for
manual handling rather than post office conveyor and automated sorting) can
add $5 to a 2 lb. book, because I will wrap the book in protective padding or
bubble paper, and put in sturdy cardboard box.
Actually, most of the ARRL books being soft cover, are not too bad in weight.
But the bigger antenna book, is perhaps the heaviest. Later, there are some
hardcover books to offer. Neither the widow nor I have a convenient scale to
weigh books, so I am working on that. I just wanted folks to realize that the
pricing was made with the thought that postage would be added to the book
price, so some things may be pretty reasonable when compared to used book
stores but are truly a good condition book and cover pages.
Please reply to: with subject line as above or "books" THANKS!
