Ham, CB, SHortwave radio clubs, fest?

[remauto1187]

My father passed away Mar. 9 and I have to liquidate his radio equipment on behalf of my sister and I. Anyone know of radio clubs, fests, etc. in the surrounding areas of Terre Haute, Indianapolis.....

I have a 4 car garage, 1 room and a storage unit to empty and sell off. Ive already started listing stuff on ebay but wow this would take a very long time using just ebay!

Microwave, Shortwave, CB, HAM you name it I probably have it including related tools, test equipment, new/used parts,broken/operable radios and much more.

My dad was a radioman in vietnam (US ARMY) and served 39 years. I followed in my father's footsteps and am an electronic technician also so I am at an advantage and know what I have here.

There is a hamfest coming up in the Peru area in two weeks. A little Google search should pull their website up.

Quite a few hams on INGO. Might be worth posting a list in the classified. Also QTH.com has a large ham-related classified section.

The Dayton Hamfest is next month in Ohio and is one of (if not the) biggest hamfests in the world. Might cost a little more to get in there, but exposure is good.

Thanks for the heads up.

Sorry for your loss.

I would at least post up the bigger or interesting items in the classifieds.

Sorry about your dad. I live by Terre Haute/Clinton and have always wanted to get a shortwave setup and my license. However, I know NOTHING about it and wouldn't even know what half the stuff I was looking at was used for.

Sorry to hear about your father.

If you could get a list together, myself and/or my ham buddies may be interested in purchasing some of the radios. I would be interested in knowing what 2m/440 mobile and handheld units you may have available.

First, sorry for your loss. My heart goes out.

Talk to the guys at the Wabash Valley Amateur Radio Asso. They'll have the best advice... or just bring it all by my house and I'll cut you a check.

Seriously, "I have a 4 car garage, 1 room and a storage unit to empty and sell off". No kidding!

As said above, the biggest hamfest in in Dayton next month.

Dayton Hamvention 2013 - DX Hamvention

It will cost a little to set up but you'll have 25,000 interested buyers looking at your stuff.
