This is a great conversation with Ron Lawrence W4RON, president of the Carolina's Chapter of the Antique Wireless Association. We talked about an old Atwater Kent (Model 10) that Ron had on display, and their conference coming up March 22-24 in Charlotte.

This talk was embedded in our visit to the Charlotte NC hamfest. Charlotte is a large, regional hamfest. It used to be larger (and it's 'region' was bigger). It got hit by the 'ham recession' around the turn of the century, and is working its way back up.

I said 'hello' to Orlando interview guest Rich Moseson W2VU from CQ, and learned a bit more from Dennis Motschenbacher K7BV about Yaesu's plans for DMR (digital voice for VHF/UHF).
