I know it's probably a bad time to put up a video of field operations with what I would imagine a bunch of Ham Field Day stuff coming up, but I just put up a short video of operations at the Hagerstown MVPA Show from the Hagerstown airport and couple still
pictures from the Hamvention out in Xenia Ohio.
Hagerstown MVPA keeps getting smaller and smaller and is cursed with rain on every Saturday for as far back as I can remember, so between that and the fact that now they wanted $50 just for me to show up and play radios is making me inclined to say this may
be the last year for that show.
Hamvention never fails to live up to expectations; the 3885 AM WW2 backpack net had over a dozen check-ins, and the 51.0 Cold War FM Net must have had thirty or forty stations active. We also did some sixty-meter stuff, but I whimped out on running RTTY from
the event this year.
Maybe consider doing a go fund me or something to offset the expense and drag the Mutt out next year? It's just that it's a long drive for dragging a trailer along.
Any way you can see the Hagerstown and Hamvention stuff at:
And remember that September 25th and 26th the Red Ball / Gilbert MVPA show along with the MRCA Event held in the same location will be coming up, Without a doubt that will be the big event for anyone in the military radio collecting community.
