    Among book offerings in the auction are the "sold out" 2019 Handbook Boxed Set, a special defense edition of The Radio Amateur's Handbook from 1942, and a 1949 ARRL Antenna Book.

    Proceeds from the annual Online Auction benefit ARRL education programs. These include activities to license new hams, strengthen Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES¿) training, offer continuing technical and operating education, and create instructional materials.
