Looks like a great turnout. How was the swap meet??? The swap meet was small- but we're going for quality not quantity right? Friday there were...

That forecast looks great! I've been worried about sitting out in the rain for the swap meet- I did that last month around here. I'm headed down...
Welcome fellow KC HAMBer. Look forward to meetimg you.
The 'true' 94's can be mixed and matched. The one 'mystery' 94 you have has a replacement body, and that's why it's a bit nicer looking. A good...
