Being an amateur radio operator for more years than I care to remember
The hoarding of electronics is a given, specially for those of us that are active constructors
rather than an appliance operator
Even the thought of tossing a bit of electronics that could be scavenged for bits is a crime haha
But now at the tender young age of 60, I really do need to start sorting some stuff. The thought
of something happening to me and leaving the poor wifey to sort it all out would be a bit unfair.
I also have to realize, that with health not the best and eyesight getting worse, I am never going to
use all the stuff I have collected. My construction activities have declined rapidly in recent years.
I had one huge cleanout 20 yrs ago before I left New Zealand to come to Australia. Now 20 yrs later
and the accumulation in Australia has again reached excessive proportions haha
