The door prize table for this month.
Various and sundry parts, books, grab bags and yes, even an old SB-102 and power supply!
Don-K5DW showed off his version of the Ft. Smith 40m Sidekick Receiver.
This is a manhatten-built version of Dave Benson's fine SW series receiver.
A kit put together by Jay Bromley and the Ft. Smith QRP group.
Don housed his in a Context Engineering aluminum box.
Lew-N5ZE brought his mini-SWR indicator and also showed off his
neat little keyer/code practice oscillator from K5JHF
Lew built the little SWR bridge to go with his Rock Mite.
Lew-N5ZE also showed off his "GatorAid" balun!
Neil, N5EIL looks on skeptically as Lew displays this little jewel that is built with a few GatorAid caps!
We all think that maybe Lew has a little too much time on his hands!
