I'd try R5D3 first, then see if I could find something worth
cannibalizing at Cascade (note new address) or Wacky
Willy's (lots of junk, but you never know...). Then I'd hit the
various thrift stores and see if I could find an old FM tuner.

At Sea-Pac this year I found out that Wacky Willy's has also moved from
its long time location across from the Reedville Cafe.

Are there any ham radio swap meets coming up?

There's the Salem club swap meet at Rickreall in February, and Sea-Pac
at Seaside in June, but no other major local ones I know of. I'm sure
that a query on a local repeater would bring full details of any others.
