It's just automatic W four 00:06:11.100 --> 00:06:13.699 MCA. And it was like, wait, wait, no, no, not 00:06:13.699 --> 00:06:19.189 anymore. Oh, I really thought and I thought, 00:06:19.329 --> 00:06:21.750 you know, now that I'm moving to the foreland, 00:06:21.930 --> 00:06:27.610 it's like, do I go ahead and get a short? Nah, 00:06:27.610 --> 00:06:30.930 I've had this one for 46 years and can't let 00:06:30.930 --> 00:06:36.910 go of it. But well, you know, I've been making 00:06:36.910 --> 00:06:41.209 my hamcation plans here because we've got a got 00:06:41.209 --> 00:06:45.040 a big party going on. I think I've already been 00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:51.180 invited to like two dinners already. So there's 00:06:51.180 --> 00:06:54.540 a lot going on. So I'm looking forward to my 00:06:54.540 --> 00:06:59.519 first trip to hamcation. So for some other people 00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:02.240 who maybe are planning their first trip to hamcation, 00:07:03.139 --> 00:07:06.540 let's talk a little bit about the options on 00:07:06.540 --> 00:07:09.180 planning a trip. And we were talking before the 00:07:09.180 --> 00:07:12.759 show, you've even Try to make some accommodations 00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:16.600 for people who really do want to make it a vacation 00:07:16.600 --> 00:07:22.379 Yeah Some of the things that we have done, of 00:07:22.379 --> 00:07:25.879 course Orlando is home to all your theme parks 00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:29.860 Disney Universal Lego lands close by a Sea World 00:07:29.860 --> 00:07:34.199 all that stuff So what we've done we've got some 00:07:34.199 --> 00:07:38.269 special rates at hotels And we've added a lot 00:07:38.269 --> 00:07:40.389 of new hotels this year. So I think we're up 00:07:40.389 --> 00:07:44.649 to around 10 hotels we've partnered with to get 00:07:44.649 --> 00:07:48.529 special rates for the show for attendees that's 00:07:48.529 --> 00:07:50.930 come to the show. And these rates are actually 00:07:50.930 --> 00:07:54.529 set up before and after the show. So it's just 00:07:54.529 --> 00:07:56.230 not for the couple of days of the show. So if 00:07:56.230 --> 00:07:58.430 you want to come in with your family, enjoy a 00:07:58.430 --> 00:08:01.709 vacation. Hopefully this will save you some money 00:08:01.709 --> 00:08:04.920 for a hotel room so you don't have to. go looking 00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:07.459 for another hotel room before or after the show 00:08:07.459 --> 00:08:11.660 so you can just stay in one hotel. Yeah, that'll 00:08:11.660 --> 00:08:15.560 be nice. So, you know, if somebody is planning 00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:20.779 on doing hamcation for the first time, you know, 00:08:20.779 --> 00:08:24.720 talk a little bit about, you know, obviously 00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:27.199 you need to be able to get there and you need 00:08:27.199 --> 00:08:30.500 to be able to, you know, have some place to stay, 00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:34.759 which You know, hotels are an option. You've 00:08:34.759 --> 00:08:42.960 also got a lot of RV space as well. have usually 00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:47.399 over 200 RVs on the Fairgrounds property. We 00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:49.639 are lucky enough to have hookups for all of those 00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:54.320 for power and water, hookups for the RVs. So 00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:57.539 if you do want to stay on property and have a 00:08:57.539 --> 00:09:00.559 RV, you can do that. This year we've actually 00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:03.419 partnered with the Fairgrounds to upgrade some 00:09:03.419 --> 00:09:07.460 of our connections for RVs. So this year we're 00:09:07.460 --> 00:09:12.840 actually doubling the number of 50 amp connections 00:09:12.840 --> 00:09:15.179 That the fairgrounds has and we're going to keep 00:09:15.179 --> 00:09:17.440 doing this every year until we max it out because 00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:21.440 most of the newer RVs require 50 amps not 30 00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:25.960 So we are improving that every year So hopefully 00:09:25.960 --> 00:09:28.480 hopefully that will help out RVs coming in to 00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:30.919 pretty much guarantee It will guarantee them 00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:33.539 a spot a 50 amp spot if that's what they purchase 00:09:34.980 --> 00:09:39.039 Okay, cool. So what else do people need to know? 00:09:39.220 --> 00:09:45.200 What about getting around from the hotel to the 00:09:45.200 --> 00:09:50.120 fairgrounds and back and those kinds of things 00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:52.159 and what they need to bring and what they need 00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:57.080 to have ready to go for the trip to Orlando? 00:09:59.629 --> 00:10:02.509 Pretty much all the hotels, unfortunately, they 00:10:02.509 --> 00:10:05.649 don't have buses that come to the fairgrounds, 00:10:05.649 --> 00:10:10.169 but we have plenty of public transportation available. 00:10:10.210 --> 00:10:15.429 We have city buses, Uber, Lyft, all your rideshare 00:10:15.429 --> 00:10:20.470 platforms will go to the fairgrounds. So all 00:10:20.470 --> 00:10:23.210 that, I do know a lot of the hotels do have buses 00:10:23.210 --> 00:10:25.889 that actually take you from the airport to the 00:10:25.889 --> 00:10:29.860 hotels. So I would just check with the hotel 00:10:29.860 --> 00:10:32.240 because I know some of them are still getting 00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:34.960 back up and running because of COVID. That was 00:10:34.960 --> 00:10:37.200 one thing a lot of the hotels did cut out during 00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:40.159 that time, but some of them are starting to do 00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:42.899 that. The shuttle bus is from the airport back 00:10:42.899 --> 00:10:46.419 to the hotel. So I would just recommend checking 00:10:46.419 --> 00:10:51.039 with whatever hotel you're staying in. But rental 00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:54.799 cars, Orlando has plenty of rental cars. They 00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.649 can be rented also. A lot of people actually, 00:10:58.690 --> 00:11:01.490 once they get to a hotel, they find other hams. 00:11:01.690 --> 00:11:04.129 A lot of these hotels, there's lots of hams staying 00:11:04.129 --> 00:11:06.529 at them. And they're just meet up with somebody 00:11:06.529 --> 00:11:09.830 and ride with them if they have a car. So that 00:11:09.830 --> 00:11:12.870 could be a way to save money also, is if a whole 00:11:12.870 --> 00:11:15.210 bunch of you are meeting up, just rent one car 00:11:15.210 --> 00:11:19.509 and everybody use it. Okay, some good ideas there. 00:11:20.649 --> 00:11:25.980 So lots of options for making the trip. to ham 00:11:25.980 --> 00:11:31.159 -cation. Now, the one nice thing about ham -cation, 00:11:31.379 --> 00:11:34.720 even though it's in February, is we're not going 00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:39.639 to worry about snow, right? No, that's the one 00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:41.600 thing I can guarantee that there will not be 00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:45.960 snow on the ground. We've had to have it rain 00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:50.120 before. It's been cold out, but usually in February 00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:55.840 our temperatures are mid -70s. So, uh, we should 00:11:55.840 --> 00:12:00.879 have a decent temperature wise weather. Um, so 00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:03.620 now by, by cold, you're, you're talking like, 00:12:03.620 --> 00:12:09.360 you know, what 60. Yeah, that's, uh, that's usually 00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:12.299 our, uh, cold. Uh, we, we do get down colder 00:12:12.299 --> 00:12:16.039 than that. And I do remember six, seven years 00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:18.500 ago in the morning time at hamcation, it was 00:12:18.500 --> 00:12:23.059 actually in the thirties, uh, and rain. So it 00:12:23.059 --> 00:12:28.460 does happen every once in a while but Not that 00:12:28.460 --> 00:12:32.179 often so our normal temperature is mid 70s during 00:12:32.179 --> 00:12:37.039 that time and usually about 50s at night That's 00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:42.480 that's a great thing to do Get away and and go 00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:46.139 get some warmth in the middle of the winter so 00:12:46.139 --> 00:12:49.360 Excellent news.

It's 00:18:43.279 --> 00:18:47.660 a hamcation at the central Florida fairgrounds. 00:18:47.759 --> 00:18:52.579 It is over 84 acres of property there that we 00:18:52.579 --> 00:18:56.779 use. And then the other big thing that we have 00:18:56.779 --> 00:19:00.220 done this year, we are actually partnering with 00:19:00.220 --> 00:19:04.740 hamstudy .org. for our VE sessions.

So hopefully it will speed up. how 00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:32.819 quick we can do the test, get more people in 00:19:32.819 --> 00:19:38.779 and out during hamcation. And so that's the other 00:19:38.779 --> 00:19:41.819 big thing that we're doing this year. All right. 00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:44.279 Well, let's see. I think I've got the music now. 00:19:47.619 --> 00:19:53.720 So there we go. Breaking news. Yeah, you heard 00:19:53.720 --> 00:20:00.839 it here first. All right. Oxcom training, you've 00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:04.980 got the training tracks, contest university, 00:20:05.339 --> 00:20:07.000 you can make a great week out of it and then 00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:10.339 take another week and go to Disney World. So 00:20:10.339 --> 00:20:15.019 great time. And I think I might do the two week 00:20:15.019 --> 00:20:20.539 thing if I had the time off to do that. But we're 00:20:20.539 --> 00:20:23.200 going to enjoy the time that we do get, which 00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:27.980 will be a few days down there. So sounds like 00:20:27.980 --> 00:20:31.279 a great time and all kinds of cool stuff. And 00:20:31.279 --> 00:20:33.700 I like the electronic grading thing. I did that 00:20:33.700 --> 00:20:39.480 way back when and it was really cool. So definitely 00:20:39.480 --> 00:20:43.180 speeds things up and a great way to move people 00:20:43.180 --> 00:20:46.680 in and out of there a lot quicker. So sounds 00:20:46.680 --> 00:20:49.269 like a great plan. Alright well we're going to 00:20:49.269 --> 00:20:51.029 take a break and when we come back we're going 00:20:51.029 --> 00:20:52.809 to talk more about hamcation.

So 00:26:41.599 --> 00:26:45.579 Let's talk a little bit about Well, actually 00:26:45.579 --> 00:26:48.079 little of the split, you know I was kind of joking 00:26:48.079 --> 00:26:50.519 about the lunges and everything and walking the 00:26:50.519 --> 00:26:52.980 flea market Let's talk a little bit about the 00:26:52.980 --> 00:26:55.640 flea market. What what's that shaping up to look 00:26:55.640 --> 00:27:00.920 like? So far is good It's hard to say exactly 00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:03.420 how many people we have come to it all depends 00:27:03.420 --> 00:27:06.319 on the weather and what people have to sell But 00:27:06.319 --> 00:27:11.039 currently with the last in 2020 we had probably 00:27:11.039 --> 00:27:17.019 around 250 tailgaters out in the tailgate area 00:27:17.019 --> 00:27:22.019 selling stuff So there's a lot of gear out there. 00:27:22.019 --> 00:27:25.599 You usually find some good deals Tailgate is 00:27:25.599 --> 00:27:27.980 spread out almost all over the whole fairgrounds 00:27:27.980 --> 00:27:32.640 in different areas So yeah bring your walking 00:27:32.640 --> 00:27:35.640 shoes you will be doing a lot of walking and 00:27:35.640 --> 00:27:37.940 One thing I did forget to mention that I always 00:27:37.940 --> 00:27:41.359 forget about we do have a company called scoot 00:27:41.359 --> 00:27:47.240 around own property They do rent Scooters and 00:27:47.240 --> 00:27:50.140 wheelchairs stuff like that if you need one if 00:27:50.140 --> 00:27:52.720 you go to our website You can actually there's 00:27:52.720 --> 00:27:55.700 a link on there to go to their website and register 00:27:55.700 --> 00:28:01.119 for one or Um, reserve one. Uh, so, um, that's 00:28:01.119 --> 00:28:02.740 something for the people that can't get around 00:28:02.740 --> 00:28:06.359 as good, uh, to be able to be able to ride around 00:28:06.359 --> 00:28:11.599 in style. There you go. Those are fun. And you 00:28:11.599 --> 00:28:14.779 can always, I don't know if this is advised by, 00:28:14.779 --> 00:28:18.099 by hamcation, but you can, you can have races. 00:28:20.960 --> 00:28:23.220 I would just recommend to have them outside. 00:28:23.380 --> 00:28:25.460 Just not in the buildings. Yeah. Yeah. Not inside 00:28:25.460 --> 00:28:28.200 the building, but yeah, but yeah, you know, you 00:28:28.200 --> 00:28:30.700 can do that. You can go like a Walmart and you 00:28:30.700 --> 00:28:35.779 have cart races. So yeah, anyway. All right. 00:28:35.880 --> 00:28:39.890 We're getting off topic, but anyway, um, Let's 00:28:39.890 --> 00:28:42.789 talk a little bit about some of the forums and 00:28:42.789 --> 00:28:46.089 activities. I know we talked about that because 00:28:46.089 --> 00:28:48.710 We're putting together something about youth 00:28:48.710 --> 00:28:53.190 on the air camp And so I know that there's a 00:28:53.190 --> 00:28:55.930 little little bit of room available So talk a 00:28:55.930 --> 00:28:58.430 little bit about the forums that you've got coming 00:28:58.430 --> 00:29:02.049 up Yeah, right now. We're still in the stages 00:29:02.049 --> 00:29:05.089 of working out a schedule, but I can tell you 00:29:05.089 --> 00:29:08.410 they will be forums on Friday Saturday Usually 00:29:08.410 --> 00:29:11.490 we have somewhere in the ballpark of about 40 00:29:11.490 --> 00:29:14.650 forms. Our forms chairman James is currently 00:29:14.650 --> 00:29:18.009 working on getting the schedule up. And I would 00:29:18.009 --> 00:29:21.289 probably say within the next two weeks or so, 00:29:21.450 --> 00:29:23.210 you should start seeing them start popping up 00:29:23.210 --> 00:29:26.329 on the website. So if you go to the forms page 00:29:26.329 --> 00:29:30.150 on the website, keep an eye on it. They will 00:29:30.150 --> 00:29:32.089 be popping up there once we start getting them 00:29:32.089 --> 00:29:37.549 scheduled exactly. Some good forums, I know Tapper 00:29:37.549 --> 00:29:43.109 is doing some, you're doing one. Joe Eisenberg 00:29:43.109 --> 00:29:47.750 is doing some. ARL will have several forums because 00:29:47.750 --> 00:29:52.609 of the national convention. So there's a whole 00:29:52.609 --> 00:29:55.069 bunch of them coming up and like John mentioned 00:29:55.069 --> 00:29:57.549 in the chat, they're always subject to change 00:29:57.549 --> 00:30:01.529 also. So best thing to do is keep an eye on the 00:30:01.529 --> 00:30:05.190 website and we do try to keep it updated. As 00:30:05.190 --> 00:30:07.329 soon as we get a change, we try to get it updated 00:30:07.329 --> 00:30:10.970 pretty quickly up there. So just keep eye on 00:30:10.970 --> 00:30:14.630 the website. And while you're mentioning the 00:30:14.630 --> 00:30:17.589 website, let's make sure everybody has the address 00:30:17.589 --> 00:30:23.509 for the website. Okay. It's going to be of course 00:30:23.509 --> 00:30:29.750 www .hamcation .com. All the information is there 00:30:29.750 --> 00:30:32.309 everything is available. We're selling tickets 00:30:32.309 --> 00:30:35.750 already So if you want to buy tickets, if you 00:30:35.750 --> 00:30:40.730 do want to tailgate spot RV spot If you're looking 00:30:40.730 --> 00:30:43.990 for if there's any vendors out there that want 00:30:43.990 --> 00:30:46.349 to come and present their products at hamcation 00:30:46.349 --> 00:30:49.869 We still have a few commercial booths available 00:30:49.869 --> 00:30:54.240 not many but we have a few We do have a large 00:30:54.240 --> 00:30:58.079 indoor, what we call swaps area, which is basically 00:30:58.079 --> 00:31:02.319 an indoor tailgate for used gear. There's over 00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:05.720 200 tables in there and there's a little bit 00:31:05.720 --> 00:31:08.039 available there also. You can go on the website 00:31:08.039 --> 00:31:11.559 and purchase any of these items from the website 00:31:11.559 --> 00:31:16.980 at www .hamcation .com. All right, check it out. 00:31:17.140 --> 00:31:22.740 It's a good, really nice... website. I know you 00:31:22.740 --> 00:31:25.720 spent some time and money on that a couple years 00:31:25.720 --> 00:31:29.599 ago to really spruce that up and you can tell 00:31:29.599 --> 00:31:33.240 it. It looks very nice and very professional 00:31:33.240 --> 00:31:36.299 and has all the information. I know your team 00:31:36.299 --> 00:31:39.420 works hard to keep that updated all the time. 00:31:40.160 --> 00:31:44.539 So great place to check that out. I'll throw 00:31:44.539 --> 00:31:50.329 you a curveball here. Will the app thing is, 00:31:50.329 --> 00:31:58.509 is that coming back? Um, we're hoping. So, um, 00:31:58.509 --> 00:32:01.950 we're in talks with ARL on it and ARL is actually 00:32:01.950 --> 00:32:05.710 in talks with the company. Um, there apparently 00:32:05.710 --> 00:32:09.490 was some COVID issues with the company. So, um, 00:32:09.490 --> 00:32:11.869 we're currently in talks, so we're not sure if 00:32:11.869 --> 00:32:15.029 it, we're hopefully some type of app. It might 00:32:15.029 --> 00:32:17.490 not be the same one, but hopefully something, 00:32:17.490 --> 00:32:20.910 but, um, We will keep everybody informed on it 00:32:20.910 --> 00:32:24.509 once we make a final decision. Okay, very good. 00:32:24.750 --> 00:32:27.829 Well, maybe something else to look forward to. 00:32:28.190 --> 00:32:32.549 So, and then prizes. I know you've really gone 00:32:32.549 --> 00:32:35.690 after the prizes. So let's talk a little bit 00:32:35.690 --> 00:32:40.710 about that. We have, and we're still in works 00:32:40.710 --> 00:32:45.519 with some sponsorships. that we're in works with 00:32:45.519 --> 00:32:49.380 to get some prizes coming in. I'm not sure exactly 00:32:49.380 --> 00:32:52.299 what all we will have, but in all the years prior, 00:32:52.759 --> 00:32:57.359 we've given out over $25 ,000 in prizes from, 00:32:57.359 --> 00:33:02.819 of course, gift certificates to radios. So once 00:33:02.819 --> 00:33:04.660 we start getting that in, you can actually go 00:33:04.660 --> 00:33:07.039 to the hamcation website and we will have all 00:33:07.039 --> 00:33:10.440 the prizes listed there. One thing we are doing 00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:14.440 again this year, we are taking Selling the prize 00:33:14.440 --> 00:33:17.460 tickets for donations like we did for the special 00:33:17.460 --> 00:33:20.740 event station that worked out very well So we 00:33:20.740 --> 00:33:22.960 are doing that again, but they're only going 00:33:22.960 --> 00:33:29.480 to be available at hamcation so You'll go to 00:33:29.480 --> 00:33:31.440 the prize and info booth and you can actually 00:33:31.440 --> 00:33:34.859 purchase extra prize donation tickets to for 00:33:34.859 --> 00:33:38.460 extra chances for the prizes and All proceeds 00:33:38.460 --> 00:33:41.640 of that goes to donations that we do for local 00:33:41.640 --> 00:33:47.630 clubs and programs that we do for the OARC. So 00:33:47.630 --> 00:33:50.410 that's where all the proceeds from the sales 00:33:50.410 --> 00:33:56.150 of that goes to. Very good. Now, if you have 00:33:56.150 --> 00:33:59.549 something to talk about, then give us a call 00:33:59.549 --> 00:34:06.210 at 859 -982 -7373 or tweet us or comment here 00:34:06.210 --> 00:34:08.289 on Spreaker. We have a few minutes left with 00:34:08.289 --> 00:34:14.300 Michael Colley, W4. I almost did it again. W4ORL, 00:34:14.780 --> 00:34:20.380 not MCA. And we're just talking a lot about hamcation 00:34:20.380 --> 00:34:22.039 here and I know we're going to have you back 00:34:22.039 --> 00:34:26.059 on in early January to kind of give us the last 00:34:26.059 --> 00:34:31.079 minute update before February gets here and we 00:34:31.079 --> 00:34:35.940 get to do this thing. So anything else that we 00:34:35.940 --> 00:34:42.590 need to let people know is going on? I think 00:34:42.590 --> 00:34:45.469 we covered everything the other thing that will 00:34:45.469 --> 00:34:49.090 be coming out is of course the The nominations 00:34:49.090 --> 00:34:51.469 has closed for the Kara Perry educator of the 00:34:51.469 --> 00:34:54.530 year award. So our committee will be selecting 00:34:54.530 --> 00:34:58.050 a winner soon So that info will be coming out 00:34:58.050 --> 00:35:04.349 also soon of who won that award this year Okay, 00:35:04.349 --> 00:35:07.329 very good.

It's looking 00:35:52.349 --> 00:35:55.449 like herd immunity. And, you know, I think a 00:35:55.449 --> 00:35:58.110 lot of other places are heading that direction. 00:35:58.929 --> 00:36:01.969 So we don't have a crystal ball and can't tell 00:36:01.969 --> 00:36:04.550 you exactly what it's going to be in February, 00:36:04.570 --> 00:36:11.340 but It's looking promising, so we'll go with 00:36:11.340 --> 00:36:14.019 that and keep it positive and keep hoping that 00:36:14.019 --> 00:36:19.159 things continue to progress.
