Midland Hamfest and other stuff today 3-11-07



Ahh, the Midland hamfest...Pretty good this year with lots of people and some pretty good stuff!!
Always good coffee and good eats too. About 100 table full of this and that. Sad to say, no modern radio buyers though there was one big amp gone from my trailer when I left, and it made me and the trailer happy!! You folks that have quit coming and are still alive are making a mistake, its still a great one!!!
Lots of new and old friends there, theres a picture here of a couple of out of towners that come pretty regularly, do you know Johnny and Jackie? Bet youve heard em on the air. The Odessa Club announced a tailgate on May 18th...that should be fun and usually we have gourmet cook on hand with a nice grill!! We shall see!
Every week, I find another reason to quit going to hamfests and maybe quit buying and selling too. Sure get called a lotta names for trying to help sometimes. And some folks act like the word "DEALER" is like the word CROOK, met a real AH in Ohio today that felt like that, N8PQB, Tom. Course after reading up on him, he doesnt like anyone hihi!! But Id be carefull of him if I were you. He says he doesnt like QTH.Com, Eham , or QRZ. Has a private site for just "some great guys"...probably rec. cb.swap !! Anyway I guess ratio of AH's is low enough but its gettin' higher. And you know me, I call em like I see em...if I see em wrong, I look again!! 73 to all , CU at TULSA/Claremore next week...
