Equipment to buy or sell?

You are allowed to inform other amateurs of ham gear available for sale or trade. Under these conditions it is legal. Keep in mind it is inappropriate to discuss prices on the air. Simply make contact on the air and then move to telephone or other means of communication for the rest of the transaction.
Does anyone have any equipment to buy or sell?
Wait... if any gear is announced, write down what it is, callsign of person with equipment and their phone number. This information can be repeated at the end of the meeting, for those who were not checked in earlier.

Anyone wishing to join the meeting come with your name and callsign, slowly please.
Write down call and name, whether they are in/out or mobile. After check-ins, read back what you copied and ask for corrections and additional check-ins.
