PARC notice to advertisers - thank you for reading
Various complaints regarding the PARC Swap Page being used for commercial purposes were noted. However, the Club welcomes all suppliers of ham equipment and will preferably not create a separate commercial section.
The Club would however like to make the following rules:
Local commercial firms should make a simple worded-only placement with an indicative picture of newly manufactured or imported equipment priced in South African Rand with a link to a relevant website for further detail.
Trading hams - with no personal website - when advertising imports or NOS with South African pricing, are to avoid the commercial spreads of that equipment and instead furnish main specifications, an indicative photo plus a link to the equipment site if available. Second hand items should be photographed in their current state and described as usual.
These rules do not prevent any commercial or private advertising but rather introduce a different format without enormous real estate advertisements and then have links to click for more detail.
Simple rules for a nice presentation: Make use of the horizontal space available - 800px maximum. Photograph multiple items next to each other. Prevent background clutter. Use a photo editor to crop away what is irrelevant. Placements with extremely large photos will summarily be removed.
PARC is in no way responsible for bad deals and will not mediate with, or compensate any of the parties involved.
This sturdy antenna has a boom length of 1,130mm and weighs 870g which makes it ideal for even the smallest of rotators.
I paid R1750 for it, so make me an offer.
Commercially manufactured Discone Antenna - R745 (For R250 extra I will add a RTL-SDR.COM dongle plus the 275-page "The Hobbyist's Guide to RTL-SDR). The dongle worked very well with the discone.

Re Scammer alert. This guy calling himself Christiaan Louw Botha also contacted me when I was looking for a Drake TR7 saying he was ZS4CLB from Lady brand. Sent me all nice pictures of the Drake equipment etc. Cell nr. was 082 954 9041 When I said I'll come and buy direct the reply was he would send a Pin drop. Nothing heard after that. Beware. 73, Ed ZS6UT
Please be aware that a person who calls himself Chris L Botha is a scammer. He claims his call is ZS4CLB and he lives in Ladybrand. His phone number is 0640620595.
He banks with Nedbank using the following accounts: 1332165524 and 1310352127, both current accounts.
There is no such person in Ladybrand. His accounts also do not verify against his name.
His accounts and actions have been reported to the Nedbank Fraud department.
He reacts to "Wanted" adverts and will try and sell you what you are looking for.

Perfect condition, we have removed all the parts, screws and brackets you will need, and it is ready to pack up and carry away to your QTH today.
See our story of installing and setting up this antenna: https://learnminds.co.za/2023/11/03/mfj-2990-a-journey-well-done/ Can withstand high winds, needs radials, about 2m long, the more the better.
R7500 for everything (value imported 3 years ago was at least R15 000 all in) - transport for you. Courier should not be crazy, it packs up reasonably small, about 1,5m long package.
I am selling and moving to a smaller home since my health has physically handicapped me a bit, no more stairs etc.. Friends at my club can attest to the quality.

See more deals below, I am selling everything at my QTH.
For the Kenwood collector:TS930s and a TS940s in pristine cosmetic condition.
The TS 930 comes with a AT 230 antenna tuner and MC 50 desk mike. The TS940 comes with a SP940 speaker/filter and MC43s hand mic. Both sets in working condition, however the 940 has got a power-on issue, after the power is switched on, it only powers up after a minute of 4, an issue that can be fixed.
It would like to sell a a whole to a collector. Never really used the sets much. Would prefer pick up at my QTH West Rand.
I am looking for a copy of the loading software for a Hytera MD785 U[1] I have emailed them but got no answer. The receipt of spam tells me that they did get my mail Many thanks Rod zs6rhz
