Wandering around the Dayton Hamvention 2023

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Don't forget to stick around to the end for the cavalcade of selfies. Did your face make it in? Let me know.

[@ReedAB8AS]

Glad I had the chance to meet you Michael. Thanks for all the videos. Great Content.

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

I'm glad we ran into each other. It was a pleasure.

[@py2rpjrubens450]

I love it! 73 from BRASIL

[@WilliamParmley]

Hey, that was outstanding, thank you! And I found a couple more places to spend money (Quirky QRP and Club Gear)!

[@matsherwood6277]

Thanks for sharing and for working a pota park while you were down there! I was able to hunt you which was fun! 73 KE8VIK from MI

[@markross5410]

One of the best Hamvention videos I have seen.

[@KM4ACK]

Great to meet you in person! 😀

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Same here, it was a pleasure. I hope we can do it again soon.

[@AA0Z]

Awesome! Thanks for taking time from your lunch to talk with me. It was great to meet you!

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Same here. It was a busy weekend, but meeting and spending five minutes with you was gold. Thank you.

[@coolstuff_.]

Cool

[@jimbragg8909]

Thank you for the QSO during your activation at Caesar Creek last Saturday Michael.

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

The pile-ups were brutal. I'm glad you made it through.

[@curronhill2744]

👍

[@K1ZEK]

Michael! Great time, thanks. Very best. Leo k1zek. Da dit da

[@W3DRE]

Michael, I have never seen you smile like that. You must have had a great time. I have never been. I will be going next year. Hope to see you there! 73

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

I get a lot of energy from meeting people face to face. I hope to be back next year too. So we need to plan a meetup.

[@AB1Vampire]

Nice vid

[@R3dN3cK]

It was great to meet you at the Kenwood booth. I hope you had a Spotted Cow for me! 73 from KO4CXD!

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Thank you. We had Spotted Cow at the campsite. I should have invited you over.

[@R3dN3cK]

[@AllanBProductions]

Glad to see you met a lot of other ham KZbinrs.

[@Spoutloud]

KF4EOM here, I've watched all of the hamvention videos so far and vote KB9VBR's the best overall. The most enjoyable to watch.

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Awesome! Thank you.

[@andrerobitaille559]

That storm detector was fantastic. You must have snagged that early.

[@christinemartens922]

I am waiting for a good storm to test it out. Nothing but clear skies for the forecast!

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

W'll get it cleaned up and working and I'll share more of it in a video.

[@JamesHannibalKH2SR]

Great video Michael! Thanks for letting my show off my prototype antenna! 73

[@EricLDC]

Want to go to one ours was canceled. 😢

[@richarde735]

did I see Hayden in those photos?

[@Kevin-w8ni]

You ran into WA6MPR! Jason was my very first HF contact. I wish I would have met him… it would have made hamvention complete! @ 6:52

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

That's cool! You never know who you might run into.

[@dongelinas5990]

Great review Mike. Better than most

[@forgetyourlife]

That’s a lot of selfies 😮

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Tell me about it.

[@ohaya1]

Possibly the best video covering this event so far! Loved that I was able to see other things, different than what other youtubers have shown. Great montage and cavalcade 😊 73, Alex 2E0LUP

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Thank you. I figured everyone else would gravitate towards the same stuff, so I broke out and did something different.

[@denf0j881]

This is my favorite video by any of the KZbinrs at Hamvention. I was there in building 3 at the 10-10 booth. Hope to see you next time! 73, and keep making those great videos, especially those with historical info. Love that stuff.

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

I saw the 10--10 booth, I should have stopped and said hi. It's good to hear that organization is still going strong. I've got a couple of historical videos in the works, including a trip to the VOA Museum. So stay tuned.

[@patriot9455]

It is not CW, it is QW

[@dfmayes]

Looks like there was everything but the kitchen sink. Oh wait 4:53

[@giffjim55]

It was great seeing you in the media “office.”

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Thank you so much for the media support. Chris and I really appreciate it.

[@mrcatslobber]

Thank you for sharing.

[@Siskiyous6]

That was a great look at the event, well done!

[@chrissewell1608]

Wow. I always heard Dayton, was awesome!

[@stephens8175]

I tried to break in on your crazy 40m pile-up on Friday night and look for you on Saturday. Unfortunately was unsuccessful on both tries. Hopefully, I will be successful next year! Thank you for all the great videos! 73 de KE8UFQ

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Those were some of the longest and loudest pile-ups I've ever had. I hope to get you in the log soon.

[@demorestautosport]

It was great to meet you in person Michael! Love the channel and thank you for all that you do for the Ham community! 73! - KE8QPI

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Same here, It was a pleasure. Thank you.

[@turtlecreek4633]

very cool. looked like you guys had a blast!! very glad you enjoyed it

[@K3JRZOnTheAir]

Definitely looked like a good time. I need to get my rear in gear and get there! 73!

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Make the trip! You'll love it. It took me 23 years to get to Hamvention. I won't wait so long next time.

[@k2wo1]

Well done Michael! Missed Dayton for first time in many year's and your video was a good replacement! See you there next year. Be well, be safe. 73, George K2WO

[@MikeN2MAK]

What a blast! It was nice to see you at Hamvention. I'm looking forward to getting you P2P sometime soon--Great Lake to Great Lake. 73

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

Same here, it was a pleasure meeting you. We'll be on the big lake July 7-9. I'll send you a message when we get closer to the date.

[@FukWit.]

Not one tan in the whole place, looks like a rally😮

[@elkabong6429]

I went once, in 2017 and it was a hoot! The problem is that my and my dad’s birthday is on 5/18 and with him in his upper 90s I like to celebrate our b’days on that weekend. I may make an exception next year and celebrate with him the weekend after. Pop is going strong both physically and mentally at 96 and could well live beyond 100 years!

[@KB9VBRAntennas]

At that age, every year is a reason to celebrate. Best wishes for his long life.

[@elkabong6429]

@@KB9VBRAntennas Thank you, Michael! Thanks for the great content, too!

[@che59v]
