[MRCG] Field Phones at MRCG 2018?

[Steve H.]

Mark,
It would be interesting to see the projects you’ve got going. I’d be interested in playing with the switchboard but don’t have any phones to use with it.

Thanks!
Steve

They're all parts of various projects I have in progress, and I'm not really far enough along to operate them meaningfully yet. But they're still pretty neat, and they're natural descendants of beloved gear like our mechanical teletypes and burst encoders. In fact, you may remember some of them from such places as Ira's big pile o' stuff for sale at a number of previous MRCG events! :)
