Hi Ron,

Will I see you at the AWA Conference this week?

No Bruce, I hate it, but I can't make this year.
I don't think my back is up to a 13 hour ride.

I hope you guys have fun, I know you will.

If you get a chance try to attend the AWA members forum,
I'd really like to be there for that.

I keep an eye out for you Ron.  We are setting up a couple of flea market spots.

Thought I might make it this year Ron, but the move and other issues dictate otherwise. Was in Raleigh a week ago, returning sometime next month and for good in October. Will certainly be there next year, planning to attend with some of the guys from the Triangle area as well as some of the mid-Atlantic gang and hopefully a few from the northeast crew.

Looking forward to hearing your after-action report, take plenty of photos. The new location is even a bit closer.  ;)

We'll miss you Ron, but sure you'll have fun at your event.
Perhaps next year?
Many of the usual crowd are not going this year, NE1S, Scott WFA, John Dilks, etc.

I'll be sure to post photos and a goodie report to your attention.

Now if I can find a nice rotary spark gap, I'd be all set!

Hope to catch you on the air OM.
