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

I hope to see you at hamvention.
