[HoustonHam] Belton

[Chris Boone]

If anyone is still looking for a room, I have a double queen non smoking room in Temple....half cost would be ~25..Free breakfast at hotel and right off I35....about 5 miles from hamfest

Weather looks GREAT!! Current forecast calls for sunny and mid 70s on Friday and Saturday (COLD front blows through Thursday with lows in the 50s)....PERFECT...

I AM TAKING as much Heliax, connectors and antenna clamps I can load into a 6x12 ft UHAUL closed tandem trailer...also Heath HA10 Amp, duplexers for LOWBAND (if I can get it out, easy modification to 6m) UHF and 220 (and BP and BR cans for VHF), Midland STI and II radio on lowband, hb and UHF, GE MII/EXEC II/MVP galore (perfect for rptrs, 1200/9600 packet, links in 430 range, etc) and DB408 NEW (but half price) hope to also dig out NC300 with rare 6/2/220 converters, etc....I will be arriving at Belton for Friday night (traveling up 290 to 130...to hell with the backroads this time....only 20-30 miles longer but faster and better roads)....PLUS if I can find them, I will bring the 3 complete DB420 elements and harnesses (sans mast) that need cleaning.
