I had people come 00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:55.320 up who asked to take their pictures with me and 00:08:55.320 --> 00:09:02.659 I'm like really Me okay I'm just me but yeah, 00:09:02.740 --> 00:09:05.320 so I mean it's it's it's interesting and fun 00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:07.799 And you know you get to also see the people like 00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:10.519 I said that you interact with once a year or 00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:12.740 in between It's it's nice to get together. It's 00:09:12.740 --> 00:09:16.019 kind of like a gathering of the tribe Yeah, well 00:09:16.019 --> 00:09:19.159 the the name this year reunion for the theme 00:09:19.159 --> 00:09:23.659 was very Very appropriate and so I know they're 00:09:23.659 --> 00:09:27.519 still Still some concern out there about COVID. 00:09:27.700 --> 00:09:29.940 And so I know some people aren't going to be 00:09:29.940 --> 00:09:35.059 able to make it, but it really is good to see 00:09:35.059 --> 00:09:39.860 people again. And hopefully things will continue 00:09:39.860 --> 00:09:45.220 to get better over the years. Anyway, I know 00:09:45.220 --> 00:09:48.600 things aren't exactly getting better at the moment, 00:09:49.320 --> 00:09:54.080 but hopefully. Hopefully another year goes by 00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:57.700 and things are better than they are today. So, 00:09:57.700 --> 00:10:01.480 well, anyway, enough about us. It's, it's time 00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:07.259 to check in on the weather for this year's Dayton 00:10:07.259 --> 00:10:38.639 Hamvention. We have on the line here, Eric Elwell, 00:10:38.740 --> 00:10:43.100 KD4BNT. He is the chief meteorologist at Spectrum 00:10:43.100 --> 00:10:46.539 Channel 1, which I'm happy to say I have here 00:10:46.539 --> 00:10:48.759 in the hotel room. I was checking it out last 00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:53.179 night. So Eric, what's the invention look like 00:10:53.179 --> 00:10:59.600 for this year? Well, Neil, it's looking pretty 00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:03.259 hot. Thanks for inviting me on here. Your ambition 00:11:03.259 --> 00:11:05.740 forecast is going to be a warm one, I do believe. 00:11:06.080 --> 00:11:07.980 We're going to be tracking a couple of chances 00:11:07.980 --> 00:11:10.179 for storms. We've got a few around that we've 00:11:10.179 --> 00:11:12.710 been monitoring here this evening. And with temperatures 00:11:12.710 --> 00:11:15.909 climbing and the humidity climbing as well, some 00:11:15.909 --> 00:11:18.450 of these storms could be fairly intense, so we'll 00:11:18.450 --> 00:11:21.470 want to look out for that. Storms, any of those 00:11:21.470 --> 00:11:23.970 around here overnight, should diminish pretty 00:11:23.970 --> 00:11:26.250 quickly. In the morning, we'll get back to sunshine, 00:11:26.730 --> 00:11:29.149 and it is going to be the hottest couple of days 00:11:29.149 --> 00:11:33.309 so far in 2022, go figure. For both Friday and 00:11:33.309 --> 00:11:35.649 Saturday, our high temperatures here at Zina 00:11:35.649 --> 00:11:38.590 are going to be up around 90 to 91 degrees, so 00:11:38.590 --> 00:11:41.580 inside and... with a fan or some cool air is 00:11:41.580 --> 00:11:44.419 going to be nice, drinks some water if you've 00:11:44.419 --> 00:11:46.179 got that around because it is going to be quite 00:11:46.179 --> 00:11:48.379 hot the next couple of days. We are tracking 00:11:48.379 --> 00:11:51.460 a cold front that will come in into western Ohio 00:11:51.460 --> 00:11:53.539 maybe as early as Saturday night. That could 00:11:53.539 --> 00:11:56.320 bring some storms in Saturday evening and then 00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:57.980 the front kind of gets hung up a little bit then 00:11:57.980 --> 00:12:00.059 moves off to the east Sunday and the temperatures 00:12:00.059 --> 00:12:02.720 start to drop back down. But it is going to be 00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:04.740 a warm couple of days here at least for the start 00:12:04.740 --> 00:12:07.559 of the weekend will cool off. Once we get past 00:12:07.559 --> 00:12:09.700 Sunday and temperatures do dip back into low 00:12:09.700 --> 00:12:14.460 7s for highs for early next week. So enjoy Hamvention. 00:12:14.899 --> 00:12:18.440 It is going to be a hot one.

Well, the weather 00:13:33.259 --> 00:13:38.500 is going to be okay in the daytime and sounds 00:13:38.500 --> 00:13:42.000 like the evening hours are going to be a little... 00:13:42.159 --> 00:13:46.820 A little wet, but it's gonna be hot So it's not 00:13:46.820 --> 00:13:50.340 the greatest forecast, but the gas prices Paul 00:13:50.340 --> 00:13:56.799 Are are not so great No, they are not Especially 00:13:56.799 --> 00:13:59.840 well you now only have like what an hour drive 00:13:59.840 --> 00:14:04.179 to get here For me, it's four and a half or five. 00:14:04.179 --> 00:14:08.159 So that almost five dollars a gallon that hurts 00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:13.350 but Yeah, so I'm not gonna tell you what I paid 00:14:13.350 --> 00:14:18.230 when I left northern Kentucky It's not the rate 00:14:18.230 --> 00:14:20.950 that's going around here. Let me tell you so 00:14:20.950 --> 00:14:26.029 Most places right now are at 449. It's pretty 00:14:26.029 --> 00:14:33.480 solidly 449 no matter where you go There are 00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:37.500 some as low as $4 .39, but they are kind of few 00:14:37.500 --> 00:14:40.440 and far between. So if you see something under 00:14:40.440 --> 00:14:45.419 $4 .49, I'd take it. In Xenia, the lowest is 00:14:45.419 --> 00:14:51.480 Walmart at $4 .47 in Xenia itself. Costco was 00:14:51.480 --> 00:14:56.220 $4 .19. I did that last night, actually. I decided... 00:14:56.169 --> 00:14:58.389 Better top off the tank. That's where I'm getting 00:14:58.389 --> 00:15:01.470 gas before I go home then. Yes, exactly. That's 00:15:01.470 --> 00:15:04.070 where to get gas before you go home. And Sam's 00:15:04.070 --> 00:15:06.929 Club, just down the road from us here, is $4 00:15:06.929 --> 00:15:11.629 .33. But everywhere else it's pretty much $4 00:15:11.629 --> 00:15:16.250 .49. So not real great on the gas prices, but 00:15:16.250 --> 00:15:21.399 we knew that. So there you go. All right. Well, 00:15:21.600 --> 00:15:25.539 when we come back, we're going to talk to Michael 00:15:25.539 --> 00:15:29.159 Coulter, W8CI, the official spokesperson of the 00:15:29.159 --> 00:15:31.659 Dayton Hamvention, and we'll talk about some 00:15:31.659 --> 00:15:34.879 of the activities and parking and traffic and 00:15:34.879 --> 00:15:37.799 all that kind of thing right after this word 00:15:37.799 --> 00:15:42.480 from Tower Electronics right here on HamTalk 00:15:42.480 --> 00:15:47.580 Live.

And it looks 00:20:37.559 --> 00:20:40.400 like the weather, although it may be warm, we're 00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:44.200 expecting rain only in the evening. So other 00:20:44.200 --> 00:20:46.500 than that, it looks really great. Everybody seems 00:20:46.500 --> 00:20:48.180 to be getting along. Things are coming together 00:20:48.180 --> 00:20:51.420 good. And I'm excited to be here again after 00:20:51.420 --> 00:20:54.579 finally to have this reunion after two years 00:20:54.579 --> 00:20:58.420 hiatus. Oh my gosh. Yeah, which this always happens 00:20:58.420 --> 00:21:01.259 to me. But every time I turn around, I run into 00:21:01.259 --> 00:21:04.819 somebody to talk to. But it seems especially 00:21:04.819 --> 00:21:08.160 more so this year because it has been two long 00:21:08.160 --> 00:21:11.119 years so we're really happy to be back here as 00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:15.880 well. So let's talk a little bit about getting 00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:19.960 here and the traffic and the parking. So maybe 00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:22.900 we'll do the parking first. You have some remote 00:21:22.900 --> 00:21:24.799 parking available and then you have some parking 00:21:24.799 --> 00:21:28.960 on site. So tell us about that. Right. We have 00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:31.799 three offsite places where you can go to. One 00:21:31.799 --> 00:21:33.519 of them is in the center of Xenia, what they 00:21:33.519 --> 00:21:36.140 call Xenia Town Square. Another one is Xenia 00:21:36.140 --> 00:21:39.119 High School. And the other one is Freedom Park. 00:21:39.119 --> 00:21:41.180 That's right. And that's over in Beaver Creek. 00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:44.200 And you can catch a bus there and be delivered 00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:47.680 very close to the main entrance. So very excited 00:21:47.680 --> 00:21:51.299 about that. I do want to mention too, Neil, that 00:21:51.299 --> 00:21:55.339 on Sunday... Anybody who wants to come, if they're 00:21:55.339 --> 00:21:57.200 interested or you brought somebody that said, 00:21:57.460 --> 00:21:59.420 you just go on without me or don't want to buy 00:21:59.420 --> 00:22:02.019 a ticket, be here Sunday. You can get in free. 00:22:02.200 --> 00:22:05.180 You get a special ticket to get in. You won't 00:22:05.180 --> 00:22:09.059 be able to win any prizes, but you'll get in 00:22:09.059 --> 00:22:11.720 free if you want to see what this is about. All 00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:14.660 right. Very good. And they just go to the main 00:22:14.660 --> 00:22:16.880 ticket booth to get that on Sunday if they do 00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:18.980 that? Correct. And the ticket booths are located 00:22:18.980 --> 00:22:22.619 just right outside the main entrance. Okay, and 00:22:22.619 --> 00:22:26.240 then so we've got the remote parking and those 00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:28.279 buses will be running back and forth all the 00:22:28.279 --> 00:22:32.160 time Tell us a little bit about the on -site 00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:36.539 parking. Oh We have a large on on site parking 00:22:36.539 --> 00:22:39.380 area and actually you can't even see from one 00:22:39.380 --> 00:22:41.880 end to the other you know because it goes way 00:22:41.880 --> 00:22:44.930 around a corner, but tremendous amount of parking 00:22:44.930 --> 00:22:47.789 here, and we have people that will help you get 00:22:47.789 --> 00:22:50.970 parked. You won't, parking is free, they'll wave 00:22:50.970 --> 00:22:52.750 you right in, they'll help you get to the next 00:22:52.750 --> 00:22:56.109 available parking spot, and we do have some golf 00:22:56.109 --> 00:22:59.789 cart shuttles if needed. There is a handicap 00:22:59.789 --> 00:23:03.349 place, a handicap segment there, and just follow 00:23:03.349 --> 00:23:05.569 the signs, but you will have to have the correct 00:23:05.569 --> 00:23:08.960 placards to be able to park there. All right, 00:23:09.019 --> 00:23:13.559 very good. Any big traffic issues with the interstate 00:23:13.559 --> 00:23:18.519 roads in the local area? Actually, we're in very 00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:20.900 good shape. A lot of the roads have been repaved, 00:23:20.960 --> 00:23:24.839 look great, and in this time of the year, this 00:23:24.839 --> 00:23:27.380 is a, and especially I think the next few days. 00:23:27.759 --> 00:23:30.420 It'll be a beautiful sunrise, we hope, and when 00:23:30.420 --> 00:23:33.339 you come in, it'll be very scenic. This is a 00:23:33.339 --> 00:23:36.759 very beautiful part of Ohio, and we're glad to 00:23:36.759 --> 00:23:40.319 show it off. We have worked with our Sheriff's 00:23:40.319 --> 00:23:43.500 Department, our regional highway patrol post, 00:23:43.640 --> 00:23:46.799 as well as the Zuniga Police. to make sure we 00:23:46.799 --> 00:23:49.160 have good traffic flow. When I say we make sure 00:23:49.160 --> 00:23:51.519 we have good traffic flow, some of the traffic 00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:54.279 patterns will be changed and then we also will 00:23:54.279 --> 00:23:58.619 have officers will be controlling traffic lights 00:23:58.619 --> 00:24:00.799 or actually being in intersections just to be 00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:03.859 sure people can move safely to where they want 00:24:03.859 --> 00:24:06.779 to get to. To the invention, right? Exactly, 00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:11.880 exactly. All right. Well, you know, I've seen 00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:15.279 a lot of the buildings here yesterday and today, 00:24:15.960 --> 00:24:18.779 and looks like, you know, things are coming together. 00:24:19.539 --> 00:24:24.420 So we hope that everybody will come out and enjoy 00:24:24.420 --> 00:24:31.140 Hamvention 2022, the reunion. And it truly is. 00:24:32.559 --> 00:24:36.319 So any final comments here about other things 00:24:36.319 --> 00:24:39.559 that are happening here? in the last few days? 00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:42.400 Well, of course, Neil, you know we have some 00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:44.920 spectacular prizes, and one of them are grand 00:24:44.920 --> 00:24:49.200 prizes worth just short of $20 ,000 donated jointly 00:24:49.200 --> 00:24:54.339 by DX Engineering and ICOM, which is really a 00:24:54.339 --> 00:24:58.500 wonderful thing, and they support Hamvention, 00:24:58.579 --> 00:25:01.079 and they support amateurs. I also want to say 00:25:01.079 --> 00:25:04.420 that when you're here, think a volunteer, because 00:25:04.420 --> 00:25:06.440 we're all volunteers. There's nobody at Spade 00:25:06.440 --> 00:25:10.759 to do anything here. And we do hire outside services, 00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:13.420 of course, but very few of those, and we have 00:25:13.420 --> 00:25:16.380 such a great volunteer workforce.

The 00:28:15.319 --> 00:28:20.319 first time was 2017 was the first Xenia Hamvention, 00:28:20.339 --> 00:28:23.440 right?

But what's really 00:28:34.740 --> 00:28:37.099 cool is to see every year we go back to see the 00:28:37.099 --> 00:28:40.519 progress they've made on the museum and how it's 00:28:40.519 --> 00:28:43.660 improved. And they've made the exhibits nicer 00:28:43.660 --> 00:28:46.079 and more interesting. And they've opened up more 00:28:46.079 --> 00:28:48.859 parts. You can walk through the transmitter now, 00:28:48.920 --> 00:28:52.559 a quarter kilowatt. Transmitter clearly it's 00:28:52.559 --> 00:28:57.200 not running at this time But yeah, it's it's 00:28:57.200 --> 00:29:00.099 an amazing thing to see and it lists the history 00:29:00.099 --> 00:29:03.279 of it So it's it's well worth your time if you're 00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:04.799 in the area to get out there and take a look 00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:11.299 at it Yeah, sure is so again VOA museum org and 00:29:11.299 --> 00:29:14.200 you can check that out now if you haven't heard 00:29:14.200 --> 00:29:18.069 yet the Contest university which happened earlier 00:29:18.069 --> 00:29:23.609 today and the contest super sweet and all the 00:29:23.789 --> 00:29:26.490 Top Band Dinner and all that kind of stuff has 00:29:26.490 --> 00:29:30.410 moved. It's no longer in downtown Dayton. It 00:29:30.410 --> 00:29:35.269 is now at the Hope Hotel in Fairborn, which is 00:29:35.269 --> 00:29:38.869 actually on the Wright -Patterson Air Force Base 00:29:38.869 --> 00:29:43.410 campus. And the contest super suite is open from 00:29:43.410 --> 00:29:49.289 7 p .m. to 2 a .m. each night there at the Hope 00:29:49.289 --> 00:29:54.009 Hotel. And Paul. Had to run some some stuff over 00:29:54.009 --> 00:29:58.049 to drop off last night and I will say make sure 00:29:58.049 --> 00:30:04.250 you pay attention to the signage Because if not, 00:30:04.289 --> 00:30:08.650 you may end up trying to go through the gate 00:30:08.650 --> 00:30:13.390 into the Air Force base and When you tell the 00:30:13.390 --> 00:30:15.950 guard that you're dropping off stuff at the hotel 00:30:15.950 --> 00:30:18.970 they look at you funny and ask you for your ID 00:30:18.970 --> 00:30:24.430 and then they escort your car around and when 00:30:24.430 --> 00:30:27.430 you get ready to drive off then they give you 00:30:27.430 --> 00:30:31.329 your ID back and they say okay here are the directions 00:30:31.329 --> 00:30:35.369 do not go through the light do not go through 00:30:35.369 --> 00:30:38.690 the light you have to turn at the gate so I that's 00:30:38.690 --> 00:30:43.309 what I hear anyway it sounds very specific though 00:30:43.309 --> 00:30:46.730 so I I'm guessing this wouldn't have happened 00:30:46.730 --> 00:30:48.529 to you because you wouldn't have you wouldn't 00:30:48.529 --> 00:30:51.650 have done that. No, not at all And I just I just 00:30:51.650 --> 00:30:54.150 realized because it's really tired really late 00:30:54.150 --> 00:30:57.150 My brain is tired the transmitter at the VOA 00:30:57.150 --> 00:31:00.430 was not a quarter kilowatt, which is Nothing. 00:31:00.450 --> 00:31:04.309 It was a quarter megawatt 250 ,000 watts when 00:31:04.309 --> 00:31:07.069 that thing was up and working. So but yeah, try 00:31:07.069 --> 00:31:09.390 not to drive onto the Air Force Base They generally 00:31:09.390 --> 00:31:13.250 frown on that Yeah, typically they do so now 00:31:13.250 --> 00:31:15.619 you're only off by you know a few powers of 10 00:31:15.619 --> 00:31:19.039 there so you know all right well thanks to ham 00:31:19.039 --> 00:31:21.680 vision and contest university uh there will be 00:31:21.680 --> 00:31:25.680 a bus from the hope hotel that will take hams 00:31:25.680 --> 00:31:28.819 to the front area of ham vision on friday and 00:31:28.819 --> 00:31:34.460 saturday um so they will do that until 5 pm on 00:31:34.460 --> 00:31:38.059 friday and on saturday and there were not any 00:31:38.059 --> 00:31:42.119 other hotel stops on that uh On that trip and 00:31:42.119 --> 00:31:45.799 tomorrow night at the hope hotel at ten o 'clock 00:31:45.799 --> 00:31:51.039 The band is back together paul after they they 00:31:51.039 --> 00:31:55.140 broke up They've decided to come back together. 00:31:55.140 --> 00:31:58.720 It's the spurious emissions band tomorrow night 00:31:58.720 --> 00:32:02.200 ten o 'clock hope hotel.
