Time to switch up the bench gear , trades , trades , trades !!

[WINKDOGG]

Well I was posting all my benchtop gear to find a new base amp , but I scored a BRAND NEW 12 Gauge Texas Star DX 1200 ! So now Im just looking for cool interesting trade offers for radios , meters , amps and any other 11 meter gear ! Im just looking to change things up a bit and get some new/different knobs to turn Take a look at the pics pretty much everything is up for trades on the bench except the Connex the Ranger and the sideband TRC ! Looking for even swaps or bundle deals if you have something cool or pricey to trade ! Nothing is a "bad" offer so feel free ! As a long time collector its time for a change of scenery , this is all my "bench gear" I have totes and closets full of stuff Im hoarding .. I mean holding on to lol

Really interested in some weird , unique , fun new radios for the bench ! I also love meters ! I would gladly do a bundle for another Bird 43 (mine is getting powder coated) but I would love to have a second inline for reflect or to run RMS with mine in peak mode ! I don't care about looks (with Bird meters) bc I tend to customize them . Also would like a Cobra 148 gtl-dx or a foreign equivalent with the same board and finals , a low watt single final Galaxy with a freq counter and or a large meter . Another Bearcat 880-990 for the truck , or a Cobra 29 LX BT ! But again check out the stacks and make any reasonable trade offer or let me know if you want details or pics /vids/ reports on anything .

Thanks for looking , 4-2-ZERO NJ Brian !

Ok for what its worth "true story " Jr Varsity football I was a center forward #4 I lost weight became a tight end #42 for varsity ball . I start racing motocross vintage 2-stroke 250cc dirtbikes I requested #42 and got blessed with a set of decals and jersey flags (paper number pinned on your chest) that were 420 . I have been smoking since I was 14 Years old but never heard of 420 (Im a cb nerd lol ) and I used it as my call numbers shooting skip since 420 got to be a "thing" in 91-94 I went for 4-2-ZERO because I had 3 locals yelling FOUR TWENTY during good conditions ! Im in New Jersey with a medical card smoking like crazy lol but im still 4-2-ZERO on freeband God bless America and Goodnight

73's with my knees in the breeze 4-2-ZERO the biggest mudduck in the Garden State ! QUACK QUACK

I started a notebook with names and numbers of the DX folks I have talked with, but sometimes things move so fast, I lost contact before I finished writing down the info.

I focus on international stuff, but try to keep a log of date/time, call sign, operator name, signal report, freq and “other”. Other being my place to note topic and station equipment as per QSO.
