- Walk thru of the Kalamazoo Ham & antique Hamfest. Lots of great antique radios & ham gear. Unfortunately, not many buyers. So, a great event if you were looking to buy, but not so good for the sellers. I snagged a super nice Heathkit CW twins station. Had one about 40 years ago, while stationed at Vandenberg AFB, CA. Missed them, but could never locate another clean operational set. These worked perfect, plug & play. I plan to use them primarily on 40 meter band, 7.115Mhz. Look for n6tlu calling CQ. Lots of people willing to get in front of the camera this time. I handed out 12 Hammared Ham glasses. Wanted to do something different this time. Everyone was friendly. A great radio social event. If you have a chance to attend a Hamfest, I would highly recommend it. A good way to be introduced to the hobby. We need new blood! Hey everyone, Check out this video of the same event! • Kalamazoo Ham Radio ha...

I am 34. I know NOTHING about radios and ham etc. But I really enjoy the old stuff, the fun all the old guys have. I will be like this also, I know :D
Great show, great presentation. Wish I could attend one of these meetings. So much better being able to see and handle items before purchase , something eBay etc. cannot deliver.
That fest had some great deals, I would have broke the bank if I was there.
Boy could I get in trouble at this event. The price's were awesome! I enjoyed every part of this presentation! You put so much humor in your videos when you're actually working on things and your humor and knowledge really adds to the event. Thanks again!
Thank you my friend, Yes the Hamfest vids are fun!
That was fun! Thanks for the field trip D lab.
hey Terry, that Heathkit radio, which was priced at $620.00 in 1974ish would be $3651.08 in 2022
Must have been Terry Wagoneer. A well known Kenwood hybrid resource.
Always very great to have you do this, video thanks so much!!
Great video sir
At 6:54 is my friend Bob Bieker -N9TEW from Indiana, I work for Bob in the summer months doing tube & part sorting.
Not a Hammy but watched for the Vintage audio. Really enjoyed your interaction with the sellers and buyers.....Lost all interest in the equipment😂
Thanks for the Hammered Ham glass and playing along with my video too! :D
Roger that Sir. Just found your video! ua-cam.com/video/TmnBMns--KU/v-deo.html
Thanks for the virtual tour! This place reminds me of the Ft. Wayne ham fest, many, many moons since I’ve been to a ham fest. I wonder if Kalamazoo Grill company is still around, they made some fantastic grilling gear. 73!
The guy at the beginning with the Globe I think is the same guy that had that Globe for $150 last year and offered it to you for $100 before he headed to church. Great video Terry! Thanks so much. KN8N
Liked the content - Thanks for the longer video!
I seen these at the Muskegon swap, nice looking rigs, thanks Terry for the video, will have to make sure I go to Kalamazoo next year, currently working on a Heathkit HX-10 transmitter myself ,73 ,s from KD8FHC
We got antique radio convention coming on the 29th in Sunbury Ohio , about an hour and half away from me. I might go to see what they got, I been buying Hammond organ chassis and amp off eBay and marketplace.
I'll take that beckman meter!
Yes, I've used that same Beckman meter. It's great!
Hit the thumbs up button
Make a guitar amp from a computer monitor. Sound and a visual display. Now that is different. Or maybe one of those mid 50's console tv sets. Put a 12 inch guitar speaker in the bottom of the cabinet and drive it with a push pull amp and tap a signal off to the tv's vertical output for like a scope display and put it on wheels. Now that would make a statement.
Terry Remington industries, is the place to buy hookup wire. I get all my hookup wire from there great prices.
Wow, I just thought of a counter Hobby, I'm thinking of taking some of those old twangy Fender guitar amps and converting them(FrankenBodge) into 100 watt am Channel 6 CB repeaters, or better yet just use an SDR coming from Atlanta picking up Channel 6 CB and Bluetooth it to the Channel 6 transmitter built inside of the old twangy Fender amp 🤣
Nothing wrong with some shameless self promotion. Too bad way more sellers than buyers. It's the economy I guess.
Meeting some friends and YT fans. I always enjoy these visits to the Hamfest radio vintage swaps Terry.
17:42 Detroit metro area I’m in metro Detroit yay
Don't know much at all about the HAM gear, but it's always a joy to watch your travels. Are you using any type of camera stabilizer, monopod, or tripod? External mic? Thanks for posting, Terry!
Hey man, Glad you liked, Nope just walking around with a Sony Handycam
Great as always..saw some cool stuff for sure, 73 KC8ARO
