FlexRadio Crowd:
FlexRadio is helping out this weekend with a very special event in Central
Texas: The National Museum of the Pacific War is having their grand
RE-OPENING this weekend and the Hill Country Amateur Radio Club will be
operating Flex Radios at their special events station N5P. President
George
H.W. Bush and family will be there Monday December 7th to dedicate the new
Bush Gallery. There will also be several other notable VIPs plus 20,000 of
our closest friends on hand for the events.
The Hill Country ARC has done a great job of setting up N5P and asked if we
could bring some "Made in Texas!" radios along. We're bringing a
FLEX-5000A
and a FLEX-3000. They've also gotten several other Naval musuems and
ship/sub displays that have ham radio to get on the air this weekend for
the
event. Please check out the information below and stop by on the air to
meet some of the local operators. Gerald and I will be around providing
technical support for the operation.
I want to give a special thanks to Marilyn Vordenbaum KE5DDR and the folks
at Gastenhaus Schmidt for graciously providing lodging this weekend for
FlexRadio at the Sunset House Bed and Breakfast. Check them out at
www.fbglodging.com if you're ever looking for a wonderful B&B in the Texas
Hill Country!
Ok, Ok.... I know what you're asking: "Why a Naval Museum in the Texas
Hill
Country?" It's the birthplace of Admiral Chester Nimitz. The museum
started in their house and just grew... and grew!
Hope to hear you folks on the air this weekend. Listen for us!
