[nrv-hams] Fwd: Ham Radio News & July Special Pricing from Quicksilver Radio

Thu Jul 18 14:18:30 EDT 2013

Ah Carter, why'd you have to spoil it? :)  Actually I can get most
connectors cheaper from John Bee then I can at Mouser or any of those
places.  The only thing I have found cheaper even with shipping from
Connecticut is Power Poles for some reason.  See ya all in Vinton on the
3rd of August I hope.
