RF Cafe Giveaways

From time-to-time, we here at RF Cafe run across items that have been sitting around, not being used for a long time. So, rather than being a pack rat and keeping things that I obviously have not need for, I will be offering them to RF Cafe visitors by means of a drawing. You send me an e-mail when you see an item that you are interested in having, and I will throw your name in the electronic "hat" (an Excel spreadsheet with a random number selection). A winner will be selected once a good number of entries have been received.

The first give-away was a set of more than 25 electronic themed wall charts. Here is the current list of available prizes to choose from.

Introduction to Communications SystemsCongratulations to Jeremiah B., of Ventura, CA. Jeremiah selected "Introduction to Communications Systems."

This month we are starting a new format for the giveaway. I have many text and reference books that I no longer need to keep on-hand, and therefore will allow each month's drawing winner to select one item from whatever is remaining after previous winners get their choices. Obviously, the earlier winners will have the best choice. Click on the icon to view the list. I will pay shipping to U.S. locations only.
