Western Connecticut Hamfest

David KC2JNS submitted these photos from the Western Connecticut Hamfest in Newtown CT. As you can see, ham radio is still a young, vibrant hobby on he cutting edge of technology and popular culture.

The main drag – one of CT’s largest hamfests

Checking out the wares

Assorted old electronic shit, a orbital sander, a Linksys router and a phone with no dialing-thingie

Again, proving that Ham Radio is a young, vibrant hobby

Maybe, if you’re lucky, you’ll find microphones from *this* century.

The amazing ‘everything for 50 cents’ box. Even the Gameboy with a broken screen.

The submitter’s son tries vainly to find anything of value. Even the broken Gameboy got a pass.

No Hamfest is complete with a table of crap manned by a woman in a wheelchair.

Thanks!! If you want to submit photos from your local hamfest, send them to [email protected]!!

HAMSEXY NET TONIGHT! Sept. 20, 2006

We had a pretty cool net, not too many folks, but a respectable showing.

Here are the brave souls.

  • Joe, KD8ATU
  • Matt, KE4NOY (Shout outs to the WARP-RADIO crowd !)
  • Jeff, WD4NMQ
  • Rusty, WB4BSD
  • Terry, VE3NSV
  • Robert, VE6PWT
  • George, VE6GCS
  • Steve, N7SCL
  • Zach, K5BCT
  • Eric, KE7IRN
  • Steve, N4SJJ

Since I was wiped out from buying a new set of wheels and starting the professional looking install, I had no topic, so we discussed the weather *GASP* and the merits of the 102 ” Whip *DOUBLE GASP*.

Next weeks net should be hosted by Jaymz, K2JSV and I have heard from a good source his topic will be about the benefits of a prostate transplant for the cure of erectile dysfunction.

 

Stay Tuned !

As a somewhat follow-up to K2JSV’s story on the Transexual Ham radio scammer (The Black Widow) below, Joe KØNEB stumbled across this photo of K7VO in his Dayton photo archive.

Jeep ratsnest

At first glance, it looks like an everyday, normal silver Jeep Liberty with an enormous lightbar. Upon closer look, the ratsnest prevents itself. Mark K8MHZ, our Michigan Bureau Chief, sent us these photos. This beast belongs to Shawn KB8UFI. As always, click on the photo for the largest image.

Alright, alright…. Not bad from this angle…

Woah…. Are those antennas? Antennae?

Something tells me that glass is going to have a hell of a time closing after a few years…

Like a nerdy Marshall Stack….

Passengers? Of course…. who knows what’s living in that pile.

9-13-2006 Hamsexy net

Hamsexy netAnd another net’s in the books. 14 checkins, not out best turnout, but not our worst either:

N5API John Denton, TX
WB4ZCP Steve Fleetwood, NC
KB3ISA Willy DE
W4MLN Marty Lansing, NC
VE2AGE Robert QC
KE4NOY Matt Murfreesboro, TN
KB3NZL Mark TX
VE6GCS George Calgary, AB
VE3HBD Bryan Toronto, ON
KB9VWP Matt Rhinelander, WI
VA7BCR Dan Vancouver, BC
VA3AE Dave Ottawa, ON
VE6PWT Bob Calgary, AB
N4SJJ Steve FL

Tonight’s topic was: “What is the best and/or worst repeater in your area?” Several people had stories to tell of wide-ranged machines with impeccable audio quality and multiple VOIP features, while others reported machines overrun with old farts that do nothing but ragchew with their CB buddies and bitch about operating procedures whenever someone outside their clique dares to throw their call in.

As usual, a grand old time was had by all. Tune in again next week for another installment of the world’s most hated net!
