Baton Rouge April 3oth

Better late than...

This year's theme was "Repeat the 1982 Hamfest", nothing but tube gear. Seriously. Oddest thing I have seen in a long time. Two, count 'em two - long tables. No commercial vendors.

Oh, and this is about as hamsexy as it got, otherwise. Stand back!

All images taken with a really poor camera phone, as they should be.

This was the first hamfest in years that I actually stood around and talked to people. Of course, we were all watching the doors to see if anyone was going to carry in anything besides more roach motel transcievers. I swear, if someone had brought a new, say, 1995 model radio, there would have been a bidding war.
