The BORED Net's second μExpo is in the books now...holy Moses I'm tired but it was a great day.
I think this concept is ready to happen-hams getting together and just enjoying being hams. No manufacturers, no vendors, no overhead, no debt for the organizers, just hanging out with other hams.
It's fun. 2026 is already being planned...TWICE. Next Septemeber at CSUCI, and possibly a springtime event at Cal Poly SLO. Watch this space.
Pneumatic Mast #3
I have a 10" box trailer, so I'm going to mount this on the front, with a suite of radios inside...packet TNCs for 220 and 2m, three VHF/UHF voice radios, an HF rig with laptop for Winlink, plus battery and solar panel. I'll use this instead of the ridiculously heavy go-box I use for net controlling events like road races.
I MAY even have it ready to show off by the μExpo on September 13th...link below.
