Progress and Pacificon, New Photo Album

We completed the batch of parts this weekend, and several launchers were built. We are shipping some this week, and more after Pacificon. This next weekend is Pacificon, and that is going to take our time for the rest of the week and over the weekend. If you are at Pacificon, come by and say hi. We’ll be at the Buddipole booth most of the time with some launchers…

We set up a photo album on our Field Day gallery. Later we’ll set up a separate gallery, but for now this allows us to quickly put photos up. We made a pass through the photo collection and put up a few already. Some are old, many are new. One in particular that was recently requested is a photo layout of the parts in assembly relationship, rather like an exploded drawing.

Antenna Launching Photo Album

Pacificon 2006 Convention

We are preparing to depart now for the SJVARS Harvest Hamfest (where we have an Early presentation), but in a few weeks we will be going to Pacificon. We have a session scheduled, “How to Build a Pneumatic Antenna Launcher” at 10:45 in Salon F. On the Pacificon web www.pacificon.org, it has been shortened and the word “Launcher” left off. Hope to see you all there! We will also have a corner of the wife’s Cookie Lee jewelry table in the hallway.
