Since you are here, it's most likely because you are a amateur (ham) radio operator or, you are at least interested in the hobby.

Hobby? I think that it is that and more. Stay with me now. Somewhere on these pages I hope to make a better distinction between a mere hobby and a passion.

If ham radio is a major passion for you as it is for me, I hope that something here will be interest to you - technical or otherwise. Share your ideas and experiences with me.

If you are unfamiliar with the ham radio, or if you have have preconceived ideas about it and about those who enjoy it, stay with me. Perhaps I can share some of the excitement those who enjoy it experience. Perhaps I can also dispel some of the negative stereotypes. I'll have a go at it, at least.

Unable to sleep? Read my comments on some ham radio related topics of interest to me. That just might help - the sleep problem, that is. On the other hand, there might be something here of interest!

They say radio hams will operate wherever and whenever we can. Wherever we can mount an antenna. A friend of mine made this shot on a recent nature photo outing we were on. We didn't notice it until the picture was processed.

(Actually, it's the tip of the BC radio antenna on the car I was standing next to.)

Sell Your Ham Radio Gear Here
Consignment Sales of Ham Radio Gear

For almost ten years, I have been selling collectibles and collectible dolls through my consignment service on which I offer on my Dooley's Treasure Chest web site. I have provided that service to collectors and doll aficionado and now I am offering that same service to ham radio operators. I know that there are many outlets for selling unwanted gear and I am not saying that I can do it better. I am simply offering another outlet.

Here in summary is how the service works. Your gear to be sold is listed on dedicated pages here on this site with pictures and descriptions you provide to me. All sales transactions are handled directly through this web site with the buyer being able to make the purchase directly. When the sale is made, I notify the seller and make the arrangements to send the purchase payment and shipping fee collected to the seller. The seller ships the sold item to the buyer.

What do I get out of it? Just like the consignment service I offer to doll and figurine collectibles sellers, I collect a small commission on the sale of each item from the proceeds of the sale. That involves the selling price only. It does not involve the shipping fee. I do not charge a listing fee to list items for sale on this site. I only get paid when the item is sold. The shipping fee collected on the sale is passed directly through to you for the purpose of shipping the sold item to the buyer. I do not take a commission on the shipping fee.

There is no listing time limit and there is no limit on the number of items a seller can list. One item or one hundred items. What will be allowed to be listed? Anything ham radio related. I'm not going to be too strict in that definition either. Transceivers, receivers, transmitters, antennas, keys, microphones, amplifiers, and the list goes on.
