NoGa Meeting - March 2, 2002

Another great NoGa meeting.  Lots of projects and never enough time.   We may have to start even earlier. 

If we got some of the names and calls wrong just holler.

Tom, K4TJD's stash.  Top to bottom.. Solder pot for the toroidialy challenged, Guppy, CQ Serenade audio CD, SMK-1 with enclosure, Vect. RX with enclosure and Norcal Cap kit.

Mike, KO4WX and his gear.  So much we can't identify it all.  The item with the big transformer which is an isolation transformer is a power supply to develop tube gear with.

Super Warbler80.  Includes a NoGaWaTT all in a big Altoids tin.  Can't remember who brought this.

Mike, W3IRZ's, stuff.  L/R.. Antenna tuner, DDS VFO project and unique Warbler tester.  Provides keying and audio to tune up with.

Travis Boatright and her CW keyer.  She had laryngitis and her dad, Mike, KO4WX,  was helping her communicate.

Pickett, AD4S, hawking NoGa inventory.  This was one of the Vectronics RX/TX bargains the club got from RS.com.

Pickett, AD4S, and the CQ Serenade audio CD.  "What do you mean copyright..??"

Mike, KO4WX, and his DDS VFO project.  He certainly won the prize for a working rat's nest.

Pickett, Travis, Ken, Sam, Joe, Mark.  As you can see we always have everyone's attention focused on a single item.

Matt, WB4BWZ, Tom, K4TJD and Chuck AF4PP.  Matt can't believe that Chuck is telling Tom that same old DX story again..!!

I give up.  Next month we are going to ask everyone to face the photographer.   Pickett was glad to see the Tulane banner.
