[@HamRadio2]

Yes, it was a fun show

[@robertmeyer4744]

[@ryank5tar]

I would go to a Ham Mall. Quirky QRP on the first floor, Denco batteries on the second floor. Pork chop sammich shoppe

[@HamRadio2]

Sounds like a great business model

[@romien8wwr414]

Andrew wasn't buying anything, he was issuing refunds due to the cooling or lack there of. Supposedly on Friday that room was unbearable, they let the portable ACs run all night. Appreciate You Jason!

Jay I watched Rudder's first bath and my wife was like, "what is so funny?" as he initially didn't take to the water, and she was in the other room, and I laughed hysterically. I also checked out the St Paul/Lowry Crossing flight, Super Cool! It's wild seeing the subdivisions plotted out, I'm sure you love those, lol...... 3s N8WWR

Next time you see old cameras at a hamfest, ask what the 'frames per second' is on it.

[@ScannerJunkie]

Could all the major retailers exist in the same space?

[@HamRadio2]

They did at Hamcom

[@gfodale]

Now that a few channels are doing meshtastic, I imagine they'll be a lot more prevalent in a couple years. In my case, interesting and doable, but not a high priority.

[@jamesbrownmiller808]

I guess you left the event before I got there, wanted to pick your brain about Meshtastic.

[@HamRadio2]

I had mine running at the show

[@N1JUR]

Nice to see old malls being repurposed for ham fests that’s a great ideas

[@miker8379]

Dang. Missed it.

[@HamRadio2]

Next time

[@ManuelPinner]

I have T-Mobile works better than AT&t all over New York City,

[@HamRadio2]

Verizon, AT&T, TMO - all of them work great in some places. Very area dependent

[@a1v175]

Pretty disappointed in the event. It was very small and lack luster. Nothing but broken junk and antiques.

[@jamesbrownmiller808]

I’m sure that Hamcom was the same way in its very beginning’s many decades ago!

[@miker8379]

I feel better I missed it. About 90 minutes drive for me.

[@HamRadio2]

It's been growing since it started, so it's moving in the right direction

[@miker8379]

What’s Belton been like lately?

[@HamRadio2]
