Please park your carcass on something comfortable and join us on Sunday November
23rd for the Hallicrafters Collectors International 20 meterTurkey Trot Net. The
pre-Net will commence with old Tom calling the vacuum tube community together by
thumping out "CQ CQ CQ Hallicrafters fans" with a real drumstick on a Navy J38.
His thigh five greeting will be at 12:45 PM EST, (1745 UTC). Remain transfixed
to the frequency, as the Turkey Trot Net proper will begin with a stirring
rendition of that Thanksgiving country classic made famous by little Jimmy
Dickens "Frankly My Dear, I Don't Give A Yam!". Expect this at 1:15 PM EST,
(1815 UTC). The frequency for this hotter than scorched gravy on a burned
sourdough biscuit vintage snack will be 14.293 Mhz usb +/- for key clicks, mike
splatter and the shrill voices of several thousand protesters at the Butterball
Turkey Farm crying foul for bareing the breasts of innocent turkey's when the
real first Thanksgiving dinner featured venison and barbecued squirrel! No
matter, these misguided Pilgrims are vegetarians and eat their chair for dessert
after a main course of those leaves you stuffed in those plastic bags the
landfill guys picked up!
So join us tomorrow and gobble up some air time with those wonders that still go
glow in the dark and don't have digital displays that after several years have
so many characters missing they look like alphabet soup being stirred! I hope to
hear you tomorrow above the din of the human leaf munchers, so waddle in early
and stay out of that apple cider! Else you will indeed be doing the Turkey Trot!
