Eric and Alan are preparing to do an invited presentation on Antenna Launching at the March 25th meeting of the North Hills Radio Club near Sacramento. If you are in the area we hope you can come by. This will be a bit different than the last presentation in Sacramento when the projector was not available. At least we hope it will be different, and we can show the slides and video that we have. We will also bring some launchers to look at. No selling is planned for this event.
Monterey and New Catalog
We had a busy weekend at Monterey Radiofest visiting with lots of folks and answering Launcher questions. In between Alan worked on a new Web Catalog which is now online (not bad for four days part-time effort). The website was very busy with lots of hits and orders over the weekend, probably relating to the March QST photo and mention.
If you have any questions or suggestions on the new Catalog website, see the Contact Us web page on the right and drop us a line.
Some folks are questioning the long lead times. We are working hard on that, but we don’t want folks to be surprised if it is not instantly better. Lots of parts are on order and already in stock, but a lot of machining remains to be done, stuffing boxes, packing and so forth. The assembled launchers take a lot more time, so we will keep on it till we get caught up. We see Elecraft is four months out on the new K3, so it may already be too late to order K3’s for Field Day…
Thanks & 73!
Famous again, and Monterey Radiofest
The new March QST features a photo of one of our Launchers in the hands of Ed, WD4DTC. Great job, Ed!
We are preparing to depart tomorrow for Radiofest in Monterey. This weekend Alan and Dawn will operate a booth at the ‘Fest. Come by and say hi if you are in the area!
We have also started a new catalog replacement program that will solve the issues some are having with the present catalog. Internet Explorer seems to work with the old catalog, but some other browsers are not happy.
