Title: AMI-West BBQ/Gabfest
Post by: W6ZKH on May 04, 2015, 06:34:09 PM
A fairly good turnout at the annual AMI-West BBQ/Gabfest get together in Santa Ynez, CA this past Saturday.  Approximately 35-40 names were on the check-in list from what I saw.  Several fellows brought items to sell/trade/etc and also items to put on the raffle table which included a BA Sig Gen too heavy it took 2 guys to lift using handles, down to tiny items I could just barely see. I noticed the Sig Gen was still sitting in its place once all the drawings were overwith.

I came away with this Harvey Well T-90 Bandmaster TX with matching PS.  Unit is very clean...wish I had the matching R-9A RX to go with it.

Looking forward to next years outing in this beautiful setting of the Central Coast foothills of WA6HCX's.

Congrats on the Harvey Wells transmitter John.  Its sure in very nice shape and with patience, I am sure you will find the receiver to go with it.

 Very slow to respond, the location is on top a hill, beautiful views of the Santa Ynez Valley and Mountains.
