At a rally, 20 metre new sealed roll of RG8 coax for £4, a never used as new in the box Kenwood SP-430 speaker for £25, a microphone anglepoise boom for the likes of a Heil mic for a fiver and a few other little odds and sods like terminals and connectors. Also won in the draw the new RSGB Radio Communication book.

An original NOS Mighty Magmum III. Still boxed with unopened instruction manual. Very nostalgic. My first home base antenna back in the late 80s
