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
