A dry camp is camping with no  hook-ups.  Like spending the night in a Wallmart or truck stop.  At Orlando they did have a power distribution system of extension cords  and threefers that  would make Edison roll over.  John ParmaleeJparmalee@aol.com281-380-3811 K5VGM WI2XLJIn a message dated

I have a suggestion.  At the last Hamfest I came and worked Friday and dry camped overnight in my camper with my wife.  I was available to work bright and early in the morning; something not easy to do when you live 60 miles out. We had just returned from Orlando a couple of weeks before where

I loved going to the clubhouse for their bi-monthly auctions. Bought a number of radios there. Including my tri-band vertical which is a Mosley and somebody had mounted it on a camera heavy stand. I've used that on 20-10 for decades, even at Field Day... It is still in storage at my AM radio
