@POTAActivator As Josh and Don mentioned, having last minute life events occur before the show is not a fail on any party. #lifehappens Both will be back at HamCation in 2027. #BegaliKeys #N3ZNKeys

@BuckheadDon @POTAActivator We were informed by Scott at Vibroplex that they will no longer attending any Hamfest.

@POTAActivator @Hamcation Both of those you mentioned planned to attend but had to pull out last-minute due to circumstances related to illness. I was disappointed they weren't there. Vibroplex was also missing. On the plus side, CWops and Long Island both had booths, the latter with a ton of keys.

Come support Doc Ballard during his first amateur radio contact!! Doc is the first and only Medal of Honor recipient to become a Ham Radio Operator. The odds of anyone meeting one of the living Medal of Honor Recipient in person is less than 0.000018%
