Re: [Amateur-repairs] Old test eqpt? Chuck it? Refurbish it?

I enjoy rebuilding and using early solid state test gear. HP and Techtronic's are my favorites. I also have some newer stuff Siglent SA and digital scope, but find the old gear very usable and repairable. The only issue I have is I am running out of space for the older gear. 
 
Our club was donated a large lot of equipment  which we took to ham fests to dispose of. We could not get rid of the tube based gear until we priced it at $25.00 each. Its a shame but the newer hams are not interested in old rigs or repairing things. And I will admit all my HF radios are current model Icoms. But I still like to repair the old stuff, play with it for a month or so and then try to find a new home for it, even if I give it away.
