Pacificon 2011

Pacificon is nearly upon us – it starts this Friday. I will be making a presentation on Antenna Launching. The schedule shows it as Sunday Morning at 9am, but as always check the schedule to make sure.

I will be at the Buddipole booth much of the time. Hope you get a chance to come by and say hi.

Thanks for your support!

Field Day 2010

Is it too early to start planning for Field Day? Let’s see. If it takes us a month to make your kit, a week to ship it, and a week for you to build it, plus a couple of weeks to test it and learn how to use it, that means it should be ordered in about March or for those last minute folks, April! If you want us to build it, then April is probably too late, order it by March!! Heck, it is almost March already!! There are quite a few launchers in the que, and parts are coming in. We have a lot of cutting, cementing and packing to do.

We will be at RadioFest in Monterey. I don’t plan to have a separate booth but maybe we will have a small demo launcher setup at the Cookie Lee booth! (If the wife will let me have a little space).

I should have the prototype CSV17T launcher finished by then. Come by and say hi!!

Emcomm West

Is this weekend, and we will be there. We will have a presentation Saturday morning and will be at either the Cookie Lee or the Buddipole booth much of the rest of the time. Hope to see you there!
