Cheapham.com is closing out all the kits they have.

Although it has been several years since I bought a kit from Ramsey I am still sad to see it go. Kits are a great way to learn in this hobby but sadly nobody wants to learn anything these days. All they want is to memorize a few answers and buy an appliance to plug in. I wonder when Sears will start selling ham gear.

I put together a bunch of Ramsey and Ten-Tec kits when I first got into ham radio. I still have a Ramsey 2m PA packed away that I bought in 1990 and it still works.

Hmmm...Sears in the radio business. Silvertone Radios and Craftsman antennas?

I remember when Sears sold some pretty good CB radios like their own Road Talker series as well as the Pierce-Simpson and Midland lines. Then again they also sold Fanon and Courier back then too. LOL

Their eBay store is still up selling some closeout items. I like the laser light show kit::
