    Seen at Hamvention 2012

    The good news is, no signs of a waste hauler or pumper this year... well, except for pictures of last year's at one or two vendors...
    (all photos are at 10% of original size in order to upload, so allow accordingly)
    7520.jpg WM3O & WW3DE (formerly of ARRL Hq)
    7518.jpgWA6MHZ & YF... funny, she doesn't look like a nun...
    7519.jpgK3LID aka WM3O... don't blame me pal, I didn't force that tag on you...
    7674.jpgFred, don't let 'DSG see this one.
    7582.jpgMr. MFJ himself, Martin F. Jue... no sign of the other more infamous Martyn...

    Hmmm. I must have hit a limit. More to come in a subsequent post.

    15 years on and my MFJ-949E tuner still works like a charm.

    A couple more real quick... I have a couple of hundred pictures to go through, there was all sorts of great stuff in the flea market (I drooled over that near-mint SX-117, but alas, $400 for rear brakes and rear springs takes precedence over a toy) :
    7527.jpg
    The new Ten-Tec Argonaut VI, although the debut is now pushed back to the fall. The companion new Model 418 linear was there as well, for some reason that photo won't upload (might need to be resized)

    Hmmm. These two look vaguely familiar... 7598.jpg

    The new Kenwood TS-990S. Display unit was under glass, and the rear panel was hidden from view. It's not yet been approved for sale.

    And the new Yaesu FTDX-9000.

    Fall you say. Hum, perfect. I have a cash stash aside from shack liquidation. When that comes out I may go with that for QRP and get the 100w K3 rather than the 10w. ..Maybe. I really have an urge to go all QRP.

    Sometimes I'm so glad I'm able to do my own auto work.
