Try Mendelson's Electronics in Dayton, Ohio. This place is incredible
and full of junk. (www.mendelsons.com) Better yet, go to the Hamvention
in Dayton, Ohio in May. (This year it's May 18th though the 20th).If you
wait until the end you can get much of what you want for free as people
just don't want to lug the boat anchors home with them.
(www.hamvention.com. If you are too far away from Dayton, try your local
hams, there are swaps all over the country.

Infinitely wise hoarders,
I am propping a "Tech Ops" lab for an upcoming spy show and am looking
for good sources for broken/junk oscilloscopes, multimeters, etc. to
fill racks. I've bought some military surplus through Government
Liquidators, gotten some things from local universities and ebay, but I
still need a lot more. The challenge with purchasing this stuff is that
everyone wants to tout (and get paid for) how well their equipment
works. "It works" is not a criterion I care about. I haven't found
anyone selling genuine junk at commensurate prices.
Any ideas? Or do any of you have secret lairs you'd like to empty?
Thanks
Nina
