- Spent the weekend at the 2018 Vintage electronics expo with Marcia and Emi (shortwave girl) Had a great time with friends. Met some new ones that subscribe to my channel. Of course the regulars were there, giving me a bad time. Always a good way to spend the weekend. Many nice antique radios, record players, test equipment and Ham gear. I picked up a few new pieces of gear. Some real nice ones for repair and presentations for you to see. This year the attendance way way down. Everyone was disappointed. Please check out the club and see if you can make it next year. Bring some young ones, so they can experience the hobby. The big Detroit event is coming up January. See: Thevee.org for more info.
PS It makes me smile to see kids interested in anything old. She obviously enjoys the show & the radios. Excellent.
You’re the best, Ter. Thanks for all you do (and have done!) 🤙
Terry, it was nice to meet you and Marcia and "Shortwave Girl" today. Thanks for putting me on your video. Mike KO9Q from South Bend. 73
the first minute was a real lesson for both of us, really great stuff.
Great video work, wonderful characters in the expo. Nice seeing Mullard valves there, an engineering tutor who taught me lathe/milling 30 years ago worked for them in the 50s/60s. Following the comments from previous commentators, I wish there were vintage fairs like this in Southern Spain. However did get lucky, my valve tester (tube checker to my American cousins!) is from one of the USAF bases here, Hickock TV-7 from 1961/2...Bloody good!!!! Best wishes....BTW, teaching my 12 year old son electronics, though he is scared of valves, he actually built his first radio from a busted toy plasma ball, ripped out the transistor, various capacitors and resistors. I just gave him a ferrite core antenna, and an earphone, and although he only had fixed capacitor values, it did tune to a radio station!....
I enjoyed your tour, especially with your wife and granddaughter. I felt as if I was right there with the three of you. Reminded me of events I've attended with my wife and granddaughter.

Darn it! How did I miss this? I went last year and was thrilled to meet you. I even made it into your video! I'm salivating, looking at all the great items I missed. It would have been great fun to meet Shortwave Girl!
She is one year old than my Grand daughter and Emi looks so much like her. Just like my grand daughter she is growing so fast.

Man O man those Art Deco radios are too cool!!!!
Man, I wish they had something like this in Florida. Inside in the A/C...
That looked fun, I miss Michigan. I dug that WLAV monitor!
I ended up buying those Brown Bendix along with the white Bendix radios that your granddaughter liked at that one booth. I got them in the Silent auction.
