Subject: Force 12 Antennas Liquidation
Thomas,
Force 12 is liquidating and relocating. We have a number of old ugly antennas
to sell off fast and cheap in the next couple weeks. Can you post a listing to
the club website?
Thanks for your help.
Begin Listing Text_______________
Force 12 Antennas is having a liquidation sale due to a change of ownership and
cross country re-location.
The following antennas are for sale and need to be gone by mid January.
Reasonable offers will be accepted.
Condition is AS IS. Drawings and manuals will be provided if available, but I
only have them for some.
Lot of 2 small tribanders (the venerable C3S - 2 el each on 20, 15, 10, single
coax feed to 20 m). Also there might be a couple vertical arrays mixed in. This
lot went on the Heard Island DXpedition, and has a thin layer of penguin poo
and salt. The hardware is all mixed up. Probably you could make at least one
complete tribander from the bundle, and figure out your own tubing sections or
hardware for the second if needed. Asking $450 for the whole thing.
Lot of 1 small tribander (C3S), this one is a prototype where the elements snap
together with bungee cords. Barely used, and can be assembled for long term
use, or would be great for field day. Asking $300.
Two antennas, 3 element Yagi on 6 m with a 10 m Moxon behind it. A single coax
on 10 m inductively feeds 6 m. A great performer, but wrong part of the solar
cycle. Asking $100 each.
A number of VHF Yagi antennas, various types, 6 m, 2 m, 222 MHz, 432 MHz. Some
are short booms, some are longer booms.
Asking $50 for smaller VHF and $75 for larger VHF.
Also there is a lot of antenna building hardware - aluminum tubing, u bolts,
stainless hardware, etc. For hardware fill a small box for $10 or a medium box
for $20.
All must sell this month.

Innovantennas already had excellent antennas designed by G0KSC, why would
they purchase Force 12? Something else seems to be going on with the
Colorado based Force 12.

On occasion I like to look at various antenna websites to see if there is
anything new and I have been unable to find a working Force 12 site using
Google. Does Force 12 still exist?
