[MRCA] Great time at Gilbert!

[W2HX]

Hey everyone. Just a note to tell you what a great time I had at Gilbert this past weekend. Such great displays, a nice mix of old and new communications technology and a whole bunch of nice people. Thanks to everyone who participated in making it happen, Dale, Al and many others.

Personally, I would like to see more of us carry 51 MHz as we walk around. It seems this was more prevalent in years past but seems to be becoming less common in recent years.

For those who where there, I had two UHF satellite systems on display (LST-5C and AN/PSC-3A) with one small stationary satellite antenna and one on a motorized base. I found this on ebay. It is a pretty good (though tiny) replica of the LST/Satcom antenna system! Amazing!

Al or Dale- Is anyone collecting photos from the outing? Maybe to post on http://www.skywaves.ar88.net/ or something?
