More Photographs from the CRC Auction

CRC Auction and Estate Sale On October 22nd and 23rd, 2016, the CRC helped liquidate the radio and equipment estate of a longtime Aurora Radioman. His nephew Mark contacted us and agreed to hold a sale and auction in the backyard of the house. The club helped Mark sell about 25 lots at The September club auction but there was still a lot to sell. We auctioned about 50 lots of tubes and 50 lots of radios and many boxes of parts and hand built radios were sold.
