MidCars Hamvention Eyeball Was Great

We Enjoyed Seeing You at Dayton!

At least 34 hams stopped in at the Informal MidCars Eyeball QSO gathering in the lunchroom at the Dayton Hamvention on Saturday afternoon.   Bright orange lettering on street signs over the tables marked the spot where MidCars hams started to gather as early as 1:30.   Despite rain which threatened the outdoor flea market sending hundreds inside, there were plenty of tables and chairs available for the MidCars group to sit and enjoy each other’s company until well after 4:00 PM.   For some it was an opportunity to renew old friendships and for others it was the first time they were able to attach faces to the voices they hear daily on 7258 KHz.  SCO Gary, W9GAS took pictures which will appear on  the MidCars Website in the next few days.   The group included eight of our Service Control Operators, our original Webmaster, our current Webmaster, officials from the Salvation Army SATERN program., and lots of our regular check-ins.
