We are dealing with a large quantity of radio gear left by a recently-deceased local amateur, as listed below. Viewing, payment and collection will be from our twice-monthly Monday night meetings at Ladybridge Community Centre (see Events menu), by prior arrangement through boltonwireless@gmail.com.
Online payments will be accepted prior to collection: ask for bank details.
We'll also have a stand at the NARSA Rally in Blackpool on 12th April, so equipment may be viewed or collected from there too. Contact us beforehand if you have a particular item of interest.
