As I write this (early Tuesday morning) things are coming together for the road trip to Hamvention. Three days until departure at roughly 1400 EDST. This will be my second trip, and I think I’m a little better prepared than last year. There are two boxes of stuff to sell in the flea market taking up precious real estate in my living room. Hopefully I can make enough money selling my junk that I can afford to buy someone else’s junk. I just love swapping junk! The rare occasion when two people can walk away from an even trade, each happy with a new acquisition, is a real treat.
Evidently the new, high-end Kenwood isn’t the only new item for Dayton. Of course there’s always new stuff but this one could be pretty exciting. I just checked the FlexRadio website and they’re up to something. “Game Changer Ahead”…to be revealed May 18. I took a peek at the Flex mail reflector and found no less than 72 entries regarding Flex’s “Game Changer”. Whatever will it be–software, hardware, peripheral? There were a lot of good ideas and suggestions as well as wild-ass guesses. For now Flex is silent but they’re really building up the hype. As a proud Flex 5KA owner I’m pretty stoked to find out. What’s the next toy they’ll come up with that I can’t live without?
