Looks like Ofcom are closing Baldock monitoring station, or perhaps they're just buying new stuff?

In any case it's being auctioned off tomorrow!!

I suspect it's a clear out of old stuff. One of the power meters was due for calibration in 2000!

In the covering email I got about the auction, it said "due to re-organisation of the business", so who knows!

They seem to have a lot of Anritsu MS2601As. My one also has an Ofcom sticker on it and I've had it for a while.

That's official then - OFCOM are a "business"!! Maybe they're streamlining to ensure they remain competitive in the marketplace and achieve the highest possible levels of customer satisfaction and service!
