Looking forward to it, Nick. WA2PJP, WB3HUZ and I will be arriving
Thursday late morning/early afternoon. Not sure what they'll be
hauling along to sell and I haven't completely decided on my stuff,
but so far it looks like a Hammarlund pre-war SP-200SX w/cabinet and
heavy duty mil power supply, scratchy Apache, Shure 444 mic, and a few
other goodies.

Will be good to see everyone again. Haven't seen Al since we met at
the Raleigh 'fest last year. And IIRC, the new area has some level of
shade from the sun as the day goes on for those of us without awnings!
