We just got back from the Hamvention.
Thanks to all the members and customers who stopped by our booths. It was good to see so many familiar faces. We appreciate your visit and business.
I would like to thank the volunteer staff and organizers of the Hamvention for the good work they did this year. Even with so many hurdles, little resources, and few hick-ups, they were able to sort out the issues and get the event going successfully.
The event this year had fewer visitors as compared to last year. I would estimate 25-30% less people than before. It has to do with the cost of traveling and gas prices. Also noticeably fewer vendors.
The weather was perfect this year. No rain and little wind.
We had good deals and I am glad it was taken advantage of. The main special included a
Mercury II receiver,
KUL1 LNBF, DG280B motor and 80cm Fortec Dish. We offered the option to upgrade the dish to the 90CM. Most customers opted to upgrade.
I am glad to see the interest from the HAM enthusiasts in FTA satellite TV.
Reminder: Don't forget our SatVention Parking Lot Sale on June 7 & 8. We will have quite a few special deals, and contests.
