Hamvention 2013 cartoon blog ... overheard in the flea market

Seen (and heard) in the flea market at Hamvention 2013. —Jason KB3CNM

Cartoon blog ... antennas large and small

Out in the Hamvention flea market ... antennas (or is it antennae?) large and small ... —Jason KB3CNM

Cartoon blog ... wireless trouble

 

Our fancy wireless card died after only a few minutes ... the cell phone company promised us a new one ... by Monday! No good.

... so we're borrowing some wi-fi (with permission) from our neighbors at SteppIR ... which has a nifty motorized dipole on display! (Thank you, SteppIR!) —Jason KB3CNM

Cartoon blog ... the road to Dayton

 

Tens of thousands of people pour into Dayton, Ohio, every May for Hamvention ... every area hotel and motel is JAMMED to the rafters. Smart hams book months in advance ... like we did ...

... except that our "budget hotel" turned out to be a seedy pigsty, forcing us to find new lodgings at the last minute ... we're now 45 minutes north of Dayton in Greenville, Ohio ... the home of KitchenAid mixers! —Jason KB3CNM
