http://www.virhistory.com/ham/shelby_2019.htm Attendance about the same as last year I think. Plenty of interesting vintage radio gear including more early broadcast sets than usual. Saw all the usual suspects and enjoyed talking with friends. Cheers, Nick K4NYW Title: Re: Shelby NC hamfest photos Post by: Opcom on September 03, 2019, 08:51:44 AM Lots of great stuff there! Thank you very much!
wow! super bargain on the collins HF aircraft radios! http://www.virhistory.com/ham/shelby-19/IMG_3463.JPG I used to have a pair of these audio amplifiers. http://www.virhistory.com/ham/shelby-19/IMG_3320.JPG They are interesting in that the output stage has voltage gain and they are pretty tough electrically. the "Universal Tiger" indestructible 125-Watt Power Amp. Build instructions are in popular electronics OCT 1970. I believe it was offered as a SWTPC kit. The pair I had was also used to drive modified deflection coils for some CRT-based art displays in the early 1980s. That would destroy most solid state amps of the day, which was a problem with my art -I was trying to get away from using heavy tube amps but kept blowng the transistor ones. Wish I could have been there to buy them if the price was right.
