The real large Ham Fest use to be in Longmount - I went to one of those well before I got my Ham license it was a really good size.
I have been to the Monument fest one once. Hmm; I did dig up my old hand held radio - I will have to find a copy of chirp. I had hope to find some sort of antenna mount for my truck; but I did not even spot a cig lighter adapter for sale.
Certainly more junk than usual it seemed.
+ at least a quarter of the tables empty and people were packing up to leave before noon.Quote:

This looks like a really impressive radio
so you pick up the gd-88 yet? killer looking screen - icons are somewhat dated
the fm reception did not seem that good on one of the very short review vids I watched.
about 225 and change delivered I guess
Not yet. I still have an Icom IC-91AD I use for handheld. But the list of features on the gd-88 is pretty damn nice!Quote:

But no, you geeks are talkin' RADIO shit??? FFS.....
I guess I didn't miss much then. I'd like to go to one of the local field days one of these days just to get to hang out and talk tech nerd stuff.
