Hey everyone,
	Picnic is just around the corner!  Brad, K4RT, is looking for some  
photos of old club events/gatherings, etc, to add to the "history of  
EIDXA" and to put in one of the upcoming newsletters.  Does anyone  
have anything they'd like to share?

	We've also got a newsletter coming up; anyone have anything they're  
burning to talk about?

Just a quick reminder for those that might be coming to the EIDXA picnic for the first time.  Please bring

dish to pass, or munchies to snack on before the grill gets going.  I have several chairs to use if you forgot

to load them into your car.  You will need plates and silverware, and your beverage of choice.  I plan on

having ice tea available.  Rain or shine the picnic will go on, we have a large kitchen.

Hope to see you Saturday

Message-ID: <759ia5hgmqlh84ktll64iggdkrdgi2hrhj@4ax.com>

I recently came into a number of 5VDC, 12A power supplies.  They are open
frame, regulated, linear supplies made by Acme/Standard in their original
boxes.  I have 6 of them that I won't need.  I got them for free and am
willing to give them away to club members.  If you think you can use one,
email me and we'll arrange a way to get it to you.  They are too heavy to
ship (7.5 lbs) and you will need to add a power cord, fuse and switch.

Message-ID: <BLU122-W79BF3214421298F208CB491DE0@phx.gbl>


Saturday, Sept, 19th.
 
Perfect weather...
Large crowd, (and large hams).

They said all tables were sold.
 
11:00 AM - about 100 hamburgers/pork chops cooking on the outdoor grille ...  about 101 hams in the food line at 11:01 AM.
 
Icom D-Star forum. Good presentation.



Some flea market items that I can remember:

Collins R-390A/URR receiver, $500.00.
Collins S-line gear.
Drake radios
Swan 500 (in origional box), Swan 270, amps, etc.
Heathkit amps, HF rigs
Hammarlund
Bakelite radios, 1950's
reels of coax - RG-213 100'  $60.00.
Rohn 25G
Yaesu FT1000MP Mark V  $1500.00
Riders schematic volumes ...

Vibroplex keys - good assortment.
Etc. etc.
 
And last but not least, D-104's everywhere ...

 

 

(Overheard yesterday)  "I'm still looking for some tubes for this thing. And knobs for the plate and load. A menu on a radio? Next thing you'll tell me is that they are selling radios that plug into computers.

I think I need to go lie down for a while".    HI  HI . 

 

 

Had fun, this is the way I remember the hamfest from years ago.

Unfortunately due to the tropical storm depression pushing up into the midwest the chance of precipitation for Saturday is 50%. I have no choice but to cancel the event for Saturday. Thanks so much for your interest and support in years past! I hope to plan for another event next fall and I will keep you all posted when a date has been determined. Thanks for understanding and hope to see you at the event next fall! 73,


PS: Please spread the word to others to make sure all are aware. Thanks!
