Good evening Scot, thanks for asking. We'd originally scheduled for May 21st, but had to cancel due to expected high winds and heavy rain ... that never did show up! Show up and win the prize for the longest drive to attend a free hamfest! 73, Rick NM3G
It was a nice local hamfest, nice crowd. Worth putting on your list for next year. Food nearby, close to I40 and Greensboro airport. I will be back. Thanks to the guys at RF Micro/ Quorvo for hosting it! N4ABA
