Item Three: Three Coax switches
These are two B&W coax switches from yesteryear. They are sold as is. I do not know of anything wrong with them, but they have been sitting idle for a long time.

Item Four: National SW-54

The radio turns on okay but needs work. Purchased at a Hamfest a few years ago for nostalgia reasons.  Since I will never get to work on it I must let it go.

Price $60.00* (plus shipping/insurance and any payment fees)

Item Five: Shure 444 High Impedance Microphone

The Shure 444 is a high impedance communications microphone.  It was matched with a radio transmitter when high impedance microphones were required.  Since it has not been modified for low impedance use and I have not had need for a high impedance microphone in a number of years, its working status is unknown.  It has been stored properly and nothing has been done to it to believe there are any issues, however, I cannot test it.

Price $40.00* (plus shipping/insurance and any payment fees)

Item Six: Old issues of QST

Price Free – local pickup

QST/Radio magazine collectors, I have years of old QST magazines that I am sure some day will end up in the recycle bin.  I hate to see that happen so if anyone wants them send me a message on the form below.  I have not made a list of the years available but will do so if there is any interest.

Item Seven: MFJ-2240 40 Meter Hamstick Dipole

Price $60.00* (plus shipping/insurance and any payment fees)

The dipole has had very little use. Was tested briefly as an attic antenna. Comes with two 40 meter hamsticks and the center mount.
