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 are holding a table-top sale evening at our Ladybridge meeting on Monday 9th March and also may be able to arrange collection of pre-paid gear from the GB4BCW Special Event Station at Brinscall Bunker (near Chorley) on Saturday 7th March - ask for details.
