Oct 22nd, 2026 | By | Category: Alerts, DMRAA Events

The 2026 Des Moines Radio Amateurs Association Chili Feed and Auction will be held on Tuesday, November 24, 2026, at 6:00 PM at:

St. Paul Presbyterian Church
6426 Merle Hay Rd
Johnston, IA 50131

Admission: $10 per person
Your admission includes both the chili meal and participation in the auction.

Bring that extra radio gear, equipment, accessories, or ham shack treasures you haven’t used for a while and put them up for auction with a live auctioneer. Then get ready to outbid the person across the room and take home the treasure you didn’t realize you needed!

Auction Rules

  • Sellers may set a minimum acceptable selling price by bidding on their own item if necessary.
  • If bidding does not reach an acceptable amount, the seller may continue bidding until the item reaches that amount or they become the winning bidder and keep the item.
  • The club retains 10% of each completed sale except Buybacks.
  • Buybacks (when you win your own item) are $1 per item.

Come hungry, bring some gear, and enjoy an evening of great food, fellowship, and bargain hunting with fellow amateur radio operators!
