Title: York PA hamfester - who's going? Post by: N3DRB The Derb on April 15, 2008, 05:06:37 PM dis saturday. I haven't been to York in years and they are now in some park. me and wifey will make the scene. Is the show still any good for parts and junkbox stuff like it used to be or does it suck now? ???
want list: big bag of buzzardly terminal strips, junkbox goodies, pair of matching rf ammeters 2.5" size 0-5 amps FS, rg 58 size silver solder N connectors, and as always, 1 more gonset GSB 201 and 1 more KW / 275 W matchbox, both NOT IN "COLLECTOR QUALITY" or "MINT" condition. I want mine to have been touched by the hand of hammy hambone with prices to match. Extra holes and screwed up paint a bonus. Also, a real nasty junker FT 101E,EE,EX strictly for parts and boards. will be dissembled down to the last screw for same. ::) Title: Re: York PA hamfester - who's going?

The worst hamfest in the world beats the best day at work by a mile. Title: Re: York PA hamfester - who's going? Post by: N3DRB The Derb on April 15, 2008, 09:20:41 PM I had a person mail me and tell me ever since it left the fairgrounds, it's sucked and dont bother going. :D
maybe I better listen. Title: Re: York PA hamfester - who's going? Post by: The Slab Bacon on April 16, 2008, 08:28:45 AM I havent made up my mind yet. (leaning towards no) It depends on how late we stay working on yer gonstipated amp, and whether or not we get the predicted rain the wxman is promising us. Probably make the deciz on saturday morning ova a cup of java.

Besides, I'm going to want to get the amp home and hook everything up !!!!! :D AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
the more I think about it, the more I'm leaning on staying home. Plenty of better festers later in the year. BLARGH. :-\ Me and Glo are going to skip this one. I'm just going to want to come home and hook up the amp anyways. |
