SBMS Swap Meet March 2, 2023 - Corona
Date: Thursday March 2, 2023
Purpose: To move everyone ahead with their amateur microwave pursuits (above 1000 Megacycles per second.) Do a spring cleaning on your shack, your lab, and your junk boxes and come trade something you have for something you need.
Place: American Legion Hall, 1024 Main Street, Corona, CA 92882.
Schedule (Pacific Time):
6:00 p.m. Hall Opens, tables arranged for display, AV setup, swap stuff on tables
7:00 p.m. Swap Meet begins

8:30 p.m. SBMS Business Meeting and annual SBMS officer election
9:00 p.m. adjourn and clean up, tables back to Legion positions
9:30 p.m. Hall Closes
Planning:
If you are planning to bring items, contact Robert Carter laserdog3@juno.com with approximate space needs so we can plan the table arrangement. Most of the setup will be in the hall but we may have tables out front too if needed (and if weather permits).
Rules:
- No table fees. (A benefit of SBMS membership. You will also have the opportunity to pay your $15/year dues if needed.)
- Everything brought must also leave. Bring or buy what you can haul. Example: 2 foot dish is OK. 6 foot dish, lilkely not.
- But, you can show pictures of larger items and make deals for later exchange.
- Amateur radio items only - microwave emphasis.
- Recommend marking all items with your callsign and asking price.
- All deals are among the swapping parties.
- Cash or bring your own square.
- SBMS is not involved in or liable for any of the business.
