Re: Fort Wayne Indiana Hamfest November 13/14 2010

It was good. Saw some blind people walking around the tables. Must be tough for them to shop.Some of those guys need to leave their spastic family members at home. One of the blind people there was Bob WD8PIC, a hell of a nice guy and a lot of fun to talk to on the radio. I actually got to meet him...

This will be my 4th time at Ft. Wayne. R&L, MFJ, sometimes Yaesu and a bunch of ARRL big shots come. It is the best one around here.It is also the Indiana ARRL convention. Hope to see you there even tho I have no idea what you look like.

Re: Fort Wayne Indiana Hamfest

I already got an amp, an AL80B, but there is always something I can use.
I have friends who will have booths. It's only a couple of hours for me.

Re: Fort Wayne Indiana Hamfest

I plan to be there. I went last year. It was the best hamfest I have been to.
MFJ and R&L electronics will be there. Hope I can scrape together enough
cash to pick up an amp.

Re: Oak Creek, WI Fest - July 6

Couple of guys at field day were talking about going up but couldn't agree on
if it was Saturday or Sunday. Someone was sure it was Saturday because
someone they know always goes and he is Mormon. The stuff you here um talk about . :baby:

Have had no problems with any of them. I plan to probably get a VX6. I like all the different types of radios. I just got these mostly because of the deals I got at the time.
Have added the VX6R and I like it.

I have the 897D and like it a lot. At first the menus seemed overwhelming but it didn't take long and I started to remember what menu # I wanted. I like the old tube stuff,think it is very cool. When I first upgraded I was using a TR-3 Drake. Right away I got tired of tuning the thing but it put out...
