Seaside Hamfest and WWARA Talk….
Attended the Seaside hamfest this weekend. I am pretty sure that I attended my first one 30 years ago or really close to it. I enjoy seeing people and hanging out, but there is little at the hamfest that actually interests me. I bought my normal bag of adapters and misc. connectors and then tried to wonder around the main flea market area. Since I’m still not doing great with the leg thing, I ended up going back to the room to rest after an hour.
My main reason for coming this year was to give a talk on the WWARA and repeater coordination. The idea was to hold a short membership meeting during the talk (which I managed todo in less than two minutes) and then give a talk about what repeater coordination actually is and some of the things the WWARA does for regular hams. The room was nearly filled and people were asking questions, so I’m going to call it a success. Here is a link to the talk.
