[PA5COR]

From the age of 12 i salvaged parts from good PCB's and must have 20.000+ transistors from all edges of the world, all tested and good.
I realised i will never use them in the rest of my life, so i started a few years back to help out Ham's that needed certain parts to send them a few of my supply.

I donated my tube collection to a museum that rebuilds old radio's or transmitters....
Having cleared out a repair shop the last month, the supply only went up, though much parts were donated to the group that doees the maintenance of our repeaters/beacons.

Standard range resistors, C's,Schottky diodes i was able to help a few members here and some at Qrz.

When I was around that age I was going into condemned buildings, and pulling vacuum tubes etc out of abandoned TV sets.
Used the primary winding out of a transformer to do my first longwire going to my moms Sx-111 stretched between the 4th floor fire escape, across a sheet metal factory parking lot to the 6th street viaduct.

After somebody disconnected the wire from the viaduct 3-4 times (probably city workers) they finally left it alone. Remember feeling current on it a few times hooking it up to the radio....
