AUCTION CATALOGUE This auction is being carried out on behalf of the relatives of the late John Coggins G3TFC. This is the second batch of equipment to be auctioned. On this occasion additional lots brought by visitors will not be accepted on the day, but the auction will comprise this catalogue of the ‘first’ 135 lots, and other lots which may be inspected on the day. These additional lots will be auctioned as usual. Those listed in this catalogue are to provide an idea of the scope and quality of the auction, and it is to be expected that there will be a number of other equipment offered. Unless otherwise stated, all items are as seen, and have not been inspected in detail, so no warranty as to them being authentic, complete, or in working order can be implied. Buyers are advised strongly to check that mains operated items comply with current safety standards before connecting to the mains. Unless otherwise stated, no such checks have been carried out on equipment offered at this auction. Buyers should be aware that equipment may have been stored under damp conditions, with the risk of ‘leaky’ transformers which could trip RCCB protected mains supplies, or fail-to-chassis when powered. Equipment may not be adequately earthed, or earth connections may have corroded. Critical power supply components such as electrolytic smoothing capacitors require ‘re-forming’ if stored for extended periods of time, resulting in spectacular failure if not treated accordingly! Some equipment offered in this auction operates at high voltage. Applying power to equipment which has not been dried out properly, or with accumulated dirt or corrosion, can damage the equipment whilst making it potentially hazardous. Those intending to place bids at this auction will be issued with a bidding card before the start. All accounts must be settled by close on the day of the auction. Those attending should be aware that the settling of accounts necessarily takes time and all are being asked to be patient and to allow sufficient time for this at the end of the day. Reserve prices will be at the auctioneer’s discretion. Getting to Kineton: Kineton is signposted from junction 12 of the M40. Follow the signposted route via Gaydon. The Village Hall is in the centre of Kineton. For those who are unable to travel by car, the nearest railway station is Warwick, from where a taxi can be taken. The distance from Warwick is approximately 12 miles.
