According to Stan "Dan, Jack, Joe, and Stan. Obviously
Joe was already hitting the coffee bar..."
Stan says "Liz and Stan. Don't ya just love her lovely

Hmm - do you think Stan has a thing for Liz? :-) No wonder they
are a great couple!

Congratulations to Joseph!
He says "I will try to send you a picture of me accepting my new HF rig.
I did not get the K3, which was the grand prize, but I got the second prize.
I will pick it up in Tulsa Wednesday while I am at the cancer center."
According to the information on the Green County Hamfest web page the second prize is a Kenwood TS-590SG!
FANTASTIC!

This picture is to have Ritchie's name and call.
He is the prize committee guy at the Green County Hamfest.
Sitting in my room at CTCA with no power supply.
You would have thought a good amateur would be prepared.
It certainly looks like the gang had a good time!
Many thanks to Jim - W5JCS, Stan - N5JFQ and Joe - WA5FLT for sharing their photos of the hamfest!
