[CTSARA] Southington Hamfest - Tomorrow ! (Sun. 3/15)

[Douglas - WA1SFH]

Hi Everybody!


This Sunday (TOMORROW- 3/15) is the date for the Southington Hamfest at 


Southington High School, 


720 Pleasant Street, Southington


Hamfests are great places to find equipment at good prices. 
For example:
Last year, at this same Hamfest, I saw a Kantronics KPC-3 TNC that sold for
$35 (great price), and a  2 meter 35 w Amplifier (good for HT Voice. and a
must have for HT Data Comms) that sold for the same amount.


Come see what deals you can find!

- HINT: Bring Cash  (LOL!) 

 

BUT WAIT!  THERE'S MORE....


The Connecticut Section Cabinet, with the help of the Southington Amateur
Radio Association (SARA), has planned more than just a plain old Ham Flea
Market this year. 

Here are the details. 


The Southington ARA and the ARRL Connecticut Section Cabinet 

Present...

 

9:00 am: 

"The Fried Ham"

- RF Safety

9:00 am:

New Handout

Also, be sure to stop at the ARRL table and pick up a NEW HANDOUT (from the
CT Section Cabinet) that removes the mystery about the ARRL Field
Organization. 

- We hope you will consider your own participation, and pass along the
information to others.
