Do you know about the Equipment Check Table?  BVARC has a staffed table with 
basic test equipment where we perform basic tests on used equipment that 
attendees are thinking of buying.  The prospective purchaser can ask the seller 
if they can bring it to the check table to verify that at least it isn't DOA 
(and a little more than that- hi, hi).  You don't need a PhD in Physics to 
perform these tests.  For example, for a power supply, we would test it under 
load, to measure the V and A out.  We won't get into filtering, regulation, 
etc.  While staffing the Check Table, it is predominantly a sit down task, with 
some lull times.  Sometimes members just drop by for 15-20 minutes, to rest and 
assist with checking.  We do need a few more members to sign up for specific 
1-hour time slots to assure that it will be staffed during the entire hamfest.  
To participate, go to the Sign-Up page at:

We hope to see you there.
Tnx es 73de John, K5IZO
