Best thing about these events is trying out new field antennas for a vehicle.  My favorite is the "End Fed" half wave that Al N3FRQ got me interested in several years ago.

Ray, 

I did and it was 5 times better then last year. 

But not a good as 2 years ago. 

Sorry I only took one picture of my side car with the other bikes. 

I do have to say there were a lot of quality surplus vs the new crap some of the venders bring.

Anybody go to the Sussex Military Vehicle Show this last weekend? Any reports or pictures? Been kicking around the idea that maybe next year I would do the Sussex show and not go to Hagerstown, can only afford to do one or  the other being there are expenses involved in dragging the MUTT a long distance. Sussex also has the disadvantage of having to drag a car trailer way up the NJ Turnpike and that’s anything but cheap.  Thought that back before Covid a lot of the Military Radio community did that show?

Always liked running the radios at the events, you always see lots of equipment including all the people who have all there GPW and the like with butterfly restored WW2 radio equipment that never gets turned on or used. My M151 MUTT is not the best looking vehicle ands has some of the worst welding and restoration but will stack my record of QSO and contacts against anyone.
