[MRCA] H-Town

[Ray Fantini]

Couple more pictures of the Hagerstown MVPA Show, once know as Aberdeen. Weather was ok, did have some rain but not like predicted. Because of the weather or possibility of weather decided not to use the usual inverted V antennas for the nets and just used the whip on the mutt with mixed results. Did work both 7087 RTTY Net and 7296 MMRCG Voice Net without issue but feel that I would have had better results if I had the big antenna up.
Big hit of the show this year was the B-29 and its flight operations along with a two seater P-51 trainer that was giving rides at the event.
I was set up along side a GRC-122 shelter on a M-1008 and had that up and running also during the event, although it was just receive only. First outing for my new GRC-215 Regency backpack and wanted to check into the daily net on 18.1575 but the net was way crowded and not able to check in.
Fifty first year for Blue & Gray Show, good to see weather did not kill it.
