My good friend’s father passed away several years ago. We are going to clean out the garage. He ran a ham radio station. He did a LOT of awful wiring. (USA 110v systems)
I’m gonna clean it all up so there are no fires.
What can I expect? Badly wired 210v setups? Capacitors carrying deadly charge? I’m a computer nerd, and know very little about ham radio.
What’s the antenna situation like? If there’s a tower of any sort, I strongly suggest you contact a local ham radio club for advice before trying to remove them.
There’s probably a thin wire “dipole” antenna overhead somewhere that should probably be removed if it’s not being used. It’ll be a wire rope with a feedline in the middle, and the ends strung out to tall objects.
We might have somebody interested in the antenna. I’m going to climb up and inspect it for safety for now.
