We had a great trip to Quartzfest. Alan made 3 presentations – one on launchers, one on baluns and one on the amazing new LED flashlights. Hope to see you there next year!
We are about out of the inventory of triggers, so we will be shifting to a different unit. Eric has used these in his launchers and they work well. To my eye they are not quite as aesthetic, but functionality is fine. We will continue to evaluate other triggers and may find a better choice later on. The trigger is easy to upgrade when not glued, and we no longer recommend glueing the trigger subsystem.
We’ll be at Quartzsite, Arizona for the next week. We are going to make a presentation on Monday. If you are at Quartzsite next week and miss the presentation, look me up and we can show you how it works. Production will resume when we return.
We heard today from a customer that there is a Launcher Video on YouTube. Actually we found a couple of them when we visited the famous video website. This one is pretty good, it has great audio and describes the process of putting up the line for the antenna. The launcher is even hand pumped, so you can see how simple it can be.
