You may have watched us the past couple years. We broadcast live streaming
video and audio of the worlds largest hamradio convention. It is the Dayton
Hamvention in Dayton , Ohio. Hams from all over the world come to this each
year.
We are looking forward to broadcasting again in just 2 weeks. For now we
have recorded video running on our website. There is also a chat room for
hams all over the world to chat and have fun. We have been viewed in over
150 countries. The site is active now and you may check it out. The address
is http://wa5kub.com or http://w5kub.com . When we start our convoy to
hamvention we will switch over to live broadcast.
Also please note that our broadcast begins 2 days earlier than the
hamvention. We actually broadcast our drive in the car LIVE for the 550
miles that we drive from Memphis, Tennessee to Dayton, Ohio. We also have
a "helmet cam" that we wear every where we go. That means you see us when we
go to eat , when we stop for gas or just about everything.
The broadcast is live 24 hours a day at hamvention as we set up outside in
the fleamarket. If you cant go, have your ham friends come by our spaces
3350-3351 and wave back to you. It will be fun.
Please spread the word to everyone. here is our schedule:
Begin the convoy to hamvention on Wednesday May 14 at 1300 gmt or 0800 AM
Central time.
It is a 10 hour drive.
We set up our fleamarket spaces at hamvention on Thursday May 15 at approx
1400 GMT.
The hamventions begins on Friday morning May 16,
We drive back to memphis after hamvention ends on Sunday May 18.
Remember you can go to http://wa5kub.com or http://w5kub.com right now and
chat with other hams around the world and watch some recorded videos of
hamfest.
Also see lots of ham radio pictures at http://tmedlin.com/dayton.html
