Lee -
I hadn't heard that Ben had passed away. I'm sorry to hear that--I had a couple of QSOs with him back in 2014.
My condolences to you and the rest of the family.

Hi Jerry,
My son Ben, KF5OEB, passed away about 6 months ago and I'm selling his ham radio gear. He had an Icom IC-956 Pro HF transceiver and it is for sale. I know it works because I actually made

Re: Rigs
Yep, hams always seem to have money for new radios, but are insultingly cheap when it comes to used ones. Hamfests are the worst, I've always said that it you put a $100 dollar bill on the table some
