Hey fellow hams. Just found this newsgroup, been inactive for about 22 years
but find that it's a bug bite that won't go away, especially now with the
kids getting old enough to appreciate their dad's weird habits huddled over
a workbench. Homebrew is what ham radio is all about - built my first
transmitter on a piece of wood using finishing nails as tie points. (Anybody
remember the Electronics Illustrated cover article describing same, circa
1970?)

Anyway, back to my subject, I'm looking for a surplus 19" equipment rack.
The net has tons available but, obviously, no point in spending $100 to ship
something worth no more than that.

I'd appreciate any guidance on this.
