Rosebud Radiofest most entertaining

Lots of useful parts for sale at good prices. I bought PL-259 crimp connectors for $3 each instead of the much higher prices I see them online. Tempted by one radio but the seller didn't accept my offer. Probably should have stayed until the end but it's a long drive back to Drummond. I did buy a few books and a nifty hot air gun.

It seemed a bit quieter than last year but there was lots to see.

Mostly, it was great to catch up with friends. Here's Peter, VK3YE being sold morse keys by Drew VK3XU:

Andrew, VK3BEK; Ralph VK3ZZC (who purchased yet more test equipment), Dave VK3ASE:

I bought a few books including the excellent "radio handbook" by William Orr. 

I looked it up on Amazon and find that a new copy is on sale for $749!

Jim, VK3ZKK and Judy VK3FJAD were representing the Radio Amateurs Old Timers Club.

As always, a very well organised event. It's marvellous to see the big signs on the roads leading up to the venue.
