This is a really... Heavy? Important? Close?... Subject for me.

My Dad (passed 10 Feb 2003) has left me with a house in Oregon... Full to
the brim with... Stuff... Some of it may be worth something, most of what is
clearly worth something has been ebayed, but the rest is still...

Well, for example, there are all these radio tubes. Most are worth nothing,
I'm sure. But there are a few that may be valuable. The problem is figuring
out which ones are which. Just writing down all the part numbers to ebay
them as a batch would take more time that I can afford.

But I would feel really bad if I just trashed it and there were some rare,
one of a kind tube in there that was just what was needed to bring some old
system back to life... I don't know, does that make any sense? 

So, are there any Hams in SW Oregon who like to have a look through it? I
have previously worked with people who ebayed items they knew to be of value
and split the sale with me.

And then there are the books, the tools, the speedo collection (more than 70
pair, don't ask) and goodness knows what else that needs to find a good
home. 

And then I look in my garage and think of my kids...

I spend time on my web sites and that is what I will give them that won't
cost them anything. Just a DVD-ROM or so. The physical stuff needs to go
away.
