Looks like he copied a shortened URL that was posted somewhere, instead of clicking it to open the link, then copying the full URL.

That's really great! Especially when someone with resources can restore it. Check the overhead console, with mod scope too! air conditioning is a plus, I would not have thought it would have had it.

Gary filmed that video at the annual West Coast AMI BBQ at George, WA6HCX's grand QTH in Santa Ynez. It was a fine and fun event. If I get my hands on some pictures I'll post them


The van is every bit as nice as it appears in the video. Everybody liked it even though this was a gathering of AMers and it was squawking SSB.

What is that equipment above the microphone?

Nice to see Collins equipment sans some of the shadowy figures which seem to turn up regularly.

I had forgotten about the early vans with the engine sitting next to you under the "hump". Ha! Quite a joy that was...
