Will,

Have fun!!! I'll be with my g/f over the weekend. I'll be back on Monday sometime. Maybe even in time to listen to the Dog and Pony show.

Why is it always a weekend I'm out of town? I'll be up in Gorman area (ugh!).... hopefully next month!

Sure would have been nice to have one near DC...
Just a thought though...
Scott

I would love to go but it's to far to drive, 2500 miles, but next month

I'll be there will. Wont have too much Hardware spending power, but a nice looksee and a trek to Ye Olde Cowboy Burger will do the trick

Ah, the sounds of batteam west meeting! Haha it sure seems that way Dale! We can finally meet up!

Hopefully all the BatTeam West members can make it out to good old TRW. So, what's for lunch????.

Will
BatTeam West

I hope it's worth it this time, last time I headed out there it was sorta eh.. I'll cross my fingers!

No Carl's JR, NOOOOO lol, I haaavent eat at that for so long, just hearing you guys go there every meeting last time making me sick lol.

Well its gonna depend on J on where he wants to go, unless we are going 2 cars


Oh yeahhh, Will, bring that power supply with u so Ican throw it in my sub

I can't go, I have to work .........well, you know I wish I could go, get a chance to meet some of the famous "Bat-Team-West" members lol.
I'm from the "east" so, can't make this one.
Someone be sure to bring back photos for those of us who didn't make it


Mike

I agree. Some photos would be cool.

I wish there were more east coast ham fests, but I'll have to wait till MIT this summer, Dayton, and Rochester of course. Buffalo hamfest continually sucks. Isn't worth the $2 in tools to get out there.

-Alex

I guess I will take some pics then, any request on what to take specificly, or gather all the astro series radio together? lol

I'll take some pictures for you guys. I'll bring my Astro just for the pic, even though the damn thing is broken (Anybody want to contribute to the Flat Rate Robert's AS3 fund?).

Will,

It looks like i'll be going afterall, but the Woman wants to go too, so.......it looks like we're gonna make the trip out . There is also the strong possability that her dad is gonna make a appearance there too. I busted up laughing when she told me he wanted to go. I'll get a hold of you on SecureNet.

Hey Guys, was there much cool stuff... I wanted to go but had other plans, which I couldn't get out of. Who's going to TRW? Is it worth it to go?

Dale, becides the picts. of all the astro's :), take a picture of all the bat members that attended, and tell us who is who. That would be great, and tell us how it went upon your return.

I'll make sure he does. Bat Team West also has 2 K9's. Hopefully I can figure out how to post pic's and i'll show you a few of us.

Excellent, thanks Again, I wish I could get down there, but, I can't make it. I'm going to try and make the dayton hamfest though

Dale, J-21 is not able to go, so lunch is YOUR choice!!! What cable do you need on the power supply, it has the Maxtrac cable on it?

Let's all make a good show for the photo session!!!

Have fun down there on Saturday, I'm stuck here in the snow for now.

oh yeahhh the k-9 team, forgot about that lol.

You still have gotten that AS3 Fix robert, thats sad to hear lol.

oh I will take the pic of the guys, if I can get them to get in a group pic.

Oh there is alot of astro series radio alright lol. Whos bringing there XTS5000, hehe.

Ummmmm I have no idea really, can you just bring out a straight cord and I will use those, kind find that word, but electrical nuts? lol cant remember.

And oh yeah either we take 2 cars, or all yall cram in my sub.

rmi2065,

I havent been there for a long while, the guys has been there, so they can tell you, some months are good some months are bad, I think this month will be good, no major event is going on this month or next week, soo might be alot of people, espically the weather will be in the mid 80

Speaking of weather, Hey Stan, you in CA this week, or still back in the east?

Anyone have the directions to the TRW swapmeet? It's been about 6 years since I have been there and I forget the location.

Also what's up with the BatTeam West in some of you guys posts, did I miss something?


Thanks
Bob

If I remember, you would have to take the 105 or the 405 and either get off on Avation Bl. or Rosecrane in Redondo Beach Then, its at the
corners of Aviation Bl. and Marine Ave
Hope that helps, but u should remember once u get in the area, just find the hundreads of TRW building lol

Also there website had some picture of past TRW's http://w6trw.com/swapmeet/swapmeet_photos.htm

I'm trying to get there but so far my plane has only aloowed me to go as far as Phoenix, I think it will bring me home Monday though.

I think it's easier to just drive either way on the 405 just south of the airport and around 6:30-7:00AM just follow the line of vehicles covered in antennas.

So did a bunch of white vans with antenna farms on the roof show up and take away your toys?

If I can make it to TRW, it will be my first time going... I've only been serious about radios (as a hobbie) for a year. I'm thinking of chancing it, and driving out there. Maybe meet BATTEAM west.

Justin

Oh yeah alot of white vans with antenna, with suits and m-16, we just all went out the Grinder and ate lol

Pics will be going up soon, couldnt really get good pics and most of everybody wasnt there, soo couldnt get everybody, and like I said lol was hard trying to get everybody together. More pics next meet

Remember Dale.. just email them to me and I'll put them up.

Yse the imfamous white van with all the antennas was there I hear tell, but that belongs to one of the Motorola techs. The FCC is chicken sxxx to show up.

TRW swapmeet this weekend.

There's a closer one.... Right off of the 405 freeway on Inglewood Ave Just south of Marine ave, on the west side of the street.

I'll be at the swap meet tomorrow. If you spot a guy wearing a red T-shirt, bib overalls and a pony tail, it's probably me.

Jeff

How about we have a "Bat Team South" meet here in Texas ?
I am in Houston, but Austin, Dallas, or San Antonio
would work also. What do you all think? Phrawg

sounds good to me I haven't been to that part of the country in a while

Austin Summerfest Texas State Convention Red Lion Hotel
Austin ARC, Austin Repeater Org., & Texas VHF-FM Society
Joe [email protected] 512-345-0800 http://www.austinsummerfest.org/
Dallas [email protected] is organizing Talk-in volunteers
The date is the 5th & 6th, next weekend.

It is a little closer than Ca land for me.
Just a little drive down 35 with a few hundred other drivers, bumber to bumber at 75 mph plus.

Hey MM, are you going to Summerfest? How does it compare to Belton?

By the way, it was nice chatting with you at my table at HamCom.

Hey Guys, if you have any good Bat Team West pics taken at the Swapmeet, please email them to me: [email protected] and I'll put them on the TRW Radio Club webpage in the Swapmeet photo section.
