The 13th Annual ARRL On-Line Auction October 19 – 26 took in more than $22,000. In addition to hundreds of browsers, the auctioAn saw 214 individual bidders vying for QST “Product Review” equipment, vintage publications, one-of-a-kind finds, and the ever popular “mystery junque boxes” from the ARRL Lab. Also receiving many bids were “Last Man Standing” KAØXTT QSL cards autographed by Tim Allen. A total of 1,084 bids were recorded.

Always the most popular auction items, QST “Product Review” equipment was in high demand. The premier item turned out to be the Apache Labs ANAN-8000DLE HF and 6-Meter SDR Transceiver, which drew a winning bid of $3,200. In second-place was the ICOM IC-R8600
