600 Meters- Where's the Surplus?

[David Stinson]

With all the ships and shore stations abandoning 600
meters, there ought to be some surplus longwave gear
in the salvage yards around major ports.  I for one
would be interested in some of this gear.  Can you
folks near the big ponds make a phone call or two
and see if anything is making it to the yards?
Or is it all going to live with Davy Jones?
Probably some minion of our felonious president
will think it para-military and have it smashed,
but we can ask.

For that matter-- how about the surplus transmitters/keys etc.
from the shore stations?? Someone's got to carry the fire.

And Phil:
I'm gonna keep two of them big beautiful Marconi
ship-to-shore transmitters!
You better come get the other four before I get even
more sentimental ;-).
