Well, it is that time of year again, and we are preparing for Pacificon. This is the largest batch of orders to date, and we are starting to ship now. This batch is getting stretched out due to many factors, but it is progressing. Kits will ship first then built launchers.

We will be making a presentation at Pacificon on Sunday, and we will have some booth space in the Buddipole booth. If you want us to bring anything to Pacificon for you, let me know ASAP so there will be time to prepare it. Come by and say hello at the Buddipole booth.

We are just about out of barrel material so we are scrambling to find more. Most other parts are in stock, or orderable within a week.

We had a good presentation and show at Emcomm West. It is nice to be back home, but the schedule is very full with upcoming weekend trips and work for the next several weeks including Dayton Hamvention!

Order backlog and workload are such that we have temporarily disabled the assembled product options (they show out of stock) . We will focus our available effort on the orders we have now, as well as new orders for kits, parts and accessories. Assembled order options will be turned on again when we are caught up with the backlog and time is available for them.

RSS feeds can be set up to monitor the news updates here, so you can see when the ordering for assembled units gets turned back on.

Thanks for your patience and support!

We are preparing for Emcomm West (May 4-5-6). We will do a presentation on Saturday at 9:30 AM and have some Antenna Launchers at the *Change* Buddipole Antenna booth. Come by and say hi if you are in the area.

The next several weekends are travel, so production will slow. We have kit parts but shipping and building launchers will stretch out.

FDLog version 1.146 has been posted and some cleanup done on the website. This is the version from last June but an older version had been posted at qsl.net, so it is not clear that everyone had the newer versions. It has some important improvements in log editing and color coding. The qsl.net site has new links to the site here.

We just shipped all orders thru 3/26. On to the next batch!

Most parts are in stock right now. That may change as the Field Day orders get going. Please don’t wait until the last minute to order!

Our next appearance is Emcomm West. We will be making a presentation, and will have a display at the Cookie Lee booth. We will have some launcher kits for sale. Looking forward to it!

Today we shipped all outstanding orders up to last week’s, so we caught up from the Pacificon bubble. Now we’re starting on a new batch of parts, and waiting for some orders to come in.

The Pelican case looks great with a CSV17 PADS in it. What color is best? I selected the yellow for this first one. It is hard to lose!

The proposed presentation at the PAARA club meeting has been delayed and will likely occur early next spring. We will be at River City ARC this coming Wednesday Nov 8. Hope to see you there!
