I moved into this house seven months ago and still don't have control over 
my garage.  In order to accomplish this, I need to sell MUCH of my ham
gear.  And no, I am not dropping out of ham radio, as my car is still
quite the mobile shack - worked a few hundred Qs during last weekend's
ARRL CW contest whilst driving from home to Salem, over to the coast,
south to Waldport, and through the woods back to Eugene.

Anyway, here's my huge garage sale list.  Enjoy.  Forward this list at
will.

ANTENNA TUNERS & WATTMETERS & OTHER STUFF

MFJ-1621 porta-tenna - good shape, whip is around here somewhere.  
Permits operation from hotel room, hilltop, etc. on what MFJ claims 
is 40-10m.  Sells new for $89.95, asking...
                                                                $66

Palomar PT-340 Tuner-Tuner - for pre-tuning your antenna audibly.
Excellent condition, sell for $99 new, asking $65.  Req. 9V battery.

Autek WM-1 computing wattmeter PEP/avg computing wattmeter.  Unit is in
near-perfect condition physically but I seem to remember something about
it not working last time I tried it a year ago.  Sells for $133 new,
asking $85 as no wattmeter is that hard to fix...I just don't have the
time to think about it right now.                               $85

Radio Shack digital wattmeter, MTA-20.  New in box.  Works down to a watt
(use one myself for QRP) and up to 2kW.  Part #21-527.          $50

Barker & Williamson VS300A, handles random wire, balanced line and
coax-fed antennas.  Excellent condition, probably have manual lying
around.                                                         $72.

MFJ-934 combination 300w antenna tuner / artificial ground.  New in box.
New price is $169.  Theoretically eliminates RF current on equipment
chassis by creating current sink on either actual ground wire or single
counterpoise thrown out window, laid along floor, etc.          $130

Nye Viking MB-VA top of the line antenna tuner.  Handles many kW.  Sells
new for about $850.  Excellent condition, rarely used over a few watts.
                                                                $525

AEA QT-1 antenna tuner w/wattmeter.  Someone once put too much power
through it and the some of the coil forms, well, melted.  It's pretty
much the same as B&W Airdux.  However, the coil still looks like a coil,
and I've used it successfully on HF and 6 meters at QRP levels.  The rest
of the unit is in excellent shape and the metering works fine.  Has a
cross-needle meter.                                             $50

Aaaarrrrgh!  After 1000s of mobile QSOs the unthinkable happened!
Sometime over the weekend, something in my trusty IC-706 popped and 
my transmit power is at zero at all frequencies!  Seeing as how it's
my primary station and what I do when driving, I'm working on getting 
it fixed and back to "normal..."

If you have a 706 I might consider a trade as I wouldn't mind having a 
SPARE rig...

Offers considered but no trades, please - that's how I got into this
situation :)  All prices are plus shipping.
