The Hamvention preview recorded live on Thursday,
May 16th, 2019. I'm your host, Neil Rapp, WB9VPG.
Thanks for tuning in to this episode of HamTalk

-in show. We're back by popular demand. We're
going to give you all the latest information
you need for your trip to Dayton. If you missed

club nerd card. So look for Hammy at Hamvention.
So if you're listening to us live tonight, you'll...
Actually... Have a chance to participate a little
bit later, but it's it's a little different than
usual So we won't be answering the phone tonight
We may may check Twitter out here, but we'll
let you know more about that as the night goes
on But tonight we have weather Traffic parking
news and information about some activities going
on this weekend related to hamvention for you
So let's start off with the weather and with
the exclusive spectrum news one hamvention weather
forecast Here is Chief Meteorologist Eric Elwell,
KD4BNT. And one or two of those could be strong
images. It's the primary concern. So make it
a bumpy start to Hamvention tonight. But then
on it off, chances for thunderstorms Friday likely
again in the afternoon. We'll have to watch out
for the threat for a few storms. They don't look
quite as intense as what we will see tonight.
Then the weekend looking pretty good. Saturday
and Sunday. We should get some sunshine back
in here for Saturday. Temperatures are going
to be soaring into the middle 80s. There's a
slight chance for a storm popping up on Sunday.
High temperatures back in the mid -80s and really
a warm and quiet weekend ahead after kind of
a bumpy night tonight. So that's a look at the
latest forecast with the exclusive hand talk,
live hand -vention weather forecast on Spectrum
News 1. Chief Meteorologist Eric Elwell, KD4,
PNT. Well, thanks so much, Eric. And since we
talked to you last year, you moved down the road
a bit from Dayton to be closer to your family.
So tell us a little bit about the new gig. Well,
Neil, yeah, thanks for asking. The new job is
definitely going well. I do work for Spectrum
News 1. We're based in Columbus, but we cover
the entire state of Ohio, including the Miami
Valley and the Dayton Metro and Xenia area. So
we do cover the weather coming in from Indiana
and really it's something I started out my career
doing late in the 1990s I came to Columbus and
worked for a company called the Ohio News Network
back then Again, we were statewide weather coverage
there from Cleveland down to the Ohio River So
this gave me a chance to come back into a statewide
cable network and I really enjoy forecasting
for all of Ohio from Lake effect snow in the
north what we deal with along the Ohio River.
So it's been a fantastic opportunity. It brought
me back closer to my family here in Columbus,
but I'm not too far from Xenia. And of course,
the weather that usually comes through Western
Ohio, the Miami Valley, arrives here in central
Ohio about an hour or so later. So thank you
very much for asking, but still glad I can cover
the weather here for Ham Bench in 2019. All right.
Thanks again, Eric. And you can catch Eric on
Spectrum Cable News 1. Across Ohio on channel
one while you're here in the Dayton area for
continuing weather coverage and we'll check in
with Eric again at the end of the show tonight
and Now we're going to turn to some traffic So
there's some Traffic concerns around town. It's
not as bad as some years of if you're coming
in from the west on I 70 That's pretty well cleared
up, but the rest stop is closed near the state
line but if you go east of 75 there are some
intermittent lane closures around Ohio 235 Dayton
Lakeview Road. Exits 52A and B at US 68 in that
neighborhood. So if you're east of 75 on 70 you're
going to see some slowdowns and on 675 between
I -75 and Paragon Road there are some lane closures
but most of those are nightly so you probably
won't catch those during the day going out to
Hamvention. One thing that will affect Hamvention
a little bit, if you go out to visit the Dera
Clubhouse, Chambersburg Road from Bell Fountain
Road East is and Huber Heights is closed. And
so you have to go on a detour to Taylorsville
Road to get to the clubhouse. So if you're going
on the visit out there to the open house, be
aware of that. Also the South Broadway ramp on
75 North and South is closed if you're around
downtown. And the East US 35 ramp to 75 North
is closed. So lots going on around US 35. But
the rest of it is pretty good. And then in Greene
County, Maple Avenue between Zena Drive and Mann
Avenue in Fairborn is closed for some road work.
And then West 2nd Street between South Progress
Drive and South Church Street, which is US 42
in Zena. We'll have some temporary lane closures
and delays and then also US -43 between Brush
Row and Bicket Roads. Some lane closures from
7 a .m. to 6 p .m. for some sidewalk installation
and we're going to try to talk to Sheriff Gene
Fisher KX8 GCS if we can here tonight. We had
a little technical glitch. It was seems typical
for our Hamvention show. And so hopefully he
gets the new phone number. So we'll try to check
in with Sheriff Gene in just a little bit. We're
also going to talk a little bit about parking
and some of the activities that are going on.
Gas prices right now. Gas prices, your lowest
is Costco in Centerville at 255. Most of the
gas prices are $279 or $289 around the Dayton
metro area. In Xenia, it's $286, but it is $281
at UDF, or as I like to call it, UDF. and 282
at Murphy USA. So if you can come in from the
south, Springboro and Franklin is the lowest
around at 251. So if you get a chance you can
save a little money there. So we're going to
take a break. We're going to come back and we'll
talk about parking and shuttle bus information
and hopefully we'll get the sheriff on here right
after this word from Tower Electronics right

Prep episode and coming to you live from Spring
Hill Suite, Dayton, South Miamisburg, just down
the street from the Dayton Mall. Thanks for tuning
in tonight, and we hope that we're helping make
your Hamvention a little more enjoyable. So now
with the parking and transportation report, we
have Larry Sack, N8QNM. Larry, thanks for being
on the show tonight and tell us about the remote
parking and shuttle buses and all that information
for everybody coming to Hamvention in the morning.
Okay, very good. All right, Neil, it's good to
be with you this evening. I want to make sure
everyone attending the show knows that there
is free parking. We have availability for about
10 ,000 cars or more. We have four remote parking
locations and we're running shuttles, three buff
shuttles to and from those remote locations to
the show. Overall, we're ready. Everything is
in place and looking forward to everyone showing
up. Okay, now I know we were talking a little
bit about one of the remote parking areas, maybe
not... being busy enough. Is the Young's Jersey
Dairy thing, is that still running or we need
to have everybody listen to talk in for that?
Right, they should listen to talk in right at
this point. I do not see us using Young's Jersey
Dairy. That's the one that we dropped this year,
or at least we put it in our back pocket. Two
of them that we no longer have, that we had last
year, would be the county campus. The county
chose to build a building where we were camped
up, you know parking cars before And the other
one that we lost is in Deer Creek along US 35
the East Gate Ford and Losinos area that one
also got redeveloped We haven't got two new locations
One is we have the Hobson Freedom Park off of
Traybine Road. That's a very large soccer facility
We have about 2 ,000 parking spaces there, and
we also have a warmer middle school, which is
closer in to Xenia, back in the flats there.
Okay, and this year the shuttle buses are going
to drop off at a little different place? Yeah,
the shuttle buses will be dropping off closer
in. It was not quite a long ride. We really have
less than a quarter mile from the main entrance
into the shuttle. Many people choose to walk,
but those that do not, we have a golf cart fleet
of about 100 -some golf carts that we have on
site to shuttle our guests to the inside exhibits.
We come over to the flea market. All we ask is
that they have their tickets ready to go when
we go through the gate. All right, we'll remind
everybody of the talk -in it's 14694 negative
offset and a PL of 123 and then the bulletin
loops on 145 525 and Also the text alerts if
you text ham vincen 19 to 8 8 8 7 7 7 You can
get text alerts and of course the ham vincen
org webpage and social media accounts And the
smartphone app now, I really have been impressed
with that and been using that quite a bit. And
even on HF, 14 .325 in the evening. So lots of
ways to get that information. And also on AM
1620, I believe it is. Is that right? That's
right. 1620 to Low Power Broadcast Station. You
bet. All right. Well, Larry, anything else we
need to tell everybody before Hamvention gets
off to a bang in the morning? Well, the last
thing I'll leave you with is that if someone
has any car trouble or they get stuck or need
a jump or a flat tire or a lockout, we have a
contract with an onsite towing company. So they'll
have their equipment onsite. So if you have any
car trouble, it's a free car service on us. Oh,
wow. That's pretty cool. All right. Well, thanks
so much Larry and we appreciate you coming on
the show and telling us all about that and Looking
forward to a great ham -vention You bet we're
ready. We're looking forward to our guests arriving.
We'll see you tomorrow All right, Larry. Thanks
a lot. Appreciate it That's Larry Sack, N8QNM,
and he's part of the public safety team there
for Hamvention. We appreciate all of the volunteers
that help make Hamvention happen each and every
year. Well, I'll be back with more from Dayton

they're closing down right now. Tomorrow night
they'll be open from four to nine and then on
Saturday they're one to nine. Now normally they're
open from one to five so you may be wondering
why are they open while Hamvention is going on.

GCO, or man on the street, is going to go around
the parking lot and try to find a ham that's
here from Texas. So, let's see here. Let's get
Paul on line here. First of all, you've got to
hit the right buttons. And I think we have you.
Okay, so... Paul, I'm going to take a quick look
out here first, Neil. Okay, we're going to send
Paul out to the parking lot here and out into
the lobby and see if we've got any people who
are arriving for Hamvention and our goal is we're
going to find somebody here from Texas. So we've
got the external phone turned on and Paul, what
do you see out there, Paul? Well, Neil, I'm walking
through the lobby. And I'm walking out into the
parking lot, Neil, and I see a bunch of cars
that are already parked. So I'm just going to
keep walking around until I find people. Don
says keep walking. Okay, so can we find a license
plate from Texas? Okay. Let's see if maybe we
can find a license plate from Texas. Now, Julie,
my fiancee, Julie, her activity at Hamvention
was always to try to find all 50 states on license
plates at Hamvention. That was her entertainment.
She didn't get into the whole radio thing, but
she liked to wander around the parking lot and
get her steps in and find all 50 states from
license plates. So are you coming up with anything,
Paul? I'm walking through. Did Don say how long
I had to walk? Oh, he says four days. Four days.
Yeah, four days in May. That's in honor of four
days of May. Oh my God. Neil. Neil. Neil. Yeah.
We have a license plate from Texas. There we
go. We got one. OK, can we go for more? There's
no person in the car. thought we got one. So
we're going to keep walking. Here we have one
from Michigan and Ohio. What a surprise. No,
wrong state. Iowa. Here's one, a real good looking
car from Indiana. More from Ohio. Don't key that
one. Virginia. Don't key the one from Indiana.

pay to get it fixed. Another Ohio. So far we
got one from Texas, Neil. Oh hey, here's one

I think definitely. Don says that's not him because
his is registered in Mississippi All right, Paul

name? It's Al, KC5R. All right. Is this your
first time here? Oh no, like the 29th time. And
that's not an exaggeration. Same junk different
year. It seems like the flea market is just an
exchange of junk. Yeah, it's from one car to
the next. Exactly. Yeah, that's it. Alright.
That's it. Anybody else? Does anybody else around
here from Texas? I think the Texas person gets
a prize, right? Oh, yeah. Yeah, we get a free
HamTalk Live t -shirt. But you do not have the
official Don Lowe Banks from Newsline sticker.
You have one of those now. We got more swag.
We got HamTalk Live decals. We got Newsline decals.
We have nerd cards. Now Paul, tell the people
a little bit about the nerd cards. This nerd
card is very handy. On one edge, you have a three
inch measuring thing. That's an official term.
Yes, a measuring thing. You've got pin outs for
various connectors. You've got the color code
for ethernet, which is something I always have
to remember. And on the back, you've got a metric
measuring thingy. Because the chemistry teacher
has to have metric on it, you know. Exactly.
And some frequency allotments and some more connector
and out thingies. So it's a useful card. Alright,
well congratulations from visiting from Texas.
But admit it, having the Don Wilbanks sticker
made your weekend, didn't it? All right. All
right. Okay. All right. Well, it's okay. So,
okay. We're going to take on a new game. All

Thank you so much, Paul. You are welcome, Neil.
Well, let's remind everybody of the talk -in
stuff one more time, 14694 negative offset, 123PL.
The alternate, 146 .985 negative with the same
123PL. The traffic bulletin station is just repeating
information over and over again, 145 .525 to
listen to that. You can get on Midcar, 7258.
20 meters, 14 -325 plus or minus for QRM. That's
7 to 9 p .m. and then 10 to 11 p .m. And then
16 -20 a .m. And you can always check OHGO .com.
That's O -H -G -O .com for the latest state traffic
conditions. And reminder, if you are on ADA parking,
you can enter gates three or four, the flea market's
gate two, and then Inside exhibitors, they got
directions already. So that's what's going on
here in Dayton, Ohio. So we're going to take
one last look at the weather with Eric, KD4B
&T, and then we'll wrap things up here. So Eric,
take it away. Sure. Taking one last look at the
weather here for him. Vince Shin, it does look
like we may have to deal with some thunderstorms
here during the night tonight. Likely we'll get
in. a pretty quiet here this evening, but after
10 or 11 o 'clock tonight, we'll be watching
storms firing off to the north and heading southward.
Some of those could produce some gusty winds.
It's a brief heavy rain, so do watch out if you
are traveling late tonight. And there could be
some standing water in the morning. I know water
has been an issue before, but it does look like
that gets out of here fairly quickly. We get
most of the day dry tomorrow, some more pop up
storms in the afternoon and evening, then quieting
down for the weekend. One thing for sure, though,
through this weekend, it will be warm. Temperatures
each day expected to be in the lower to middle
80s, so dress appropriately. With your ham -vincing
weather, I'm Spectrum News 1 Chief Meteorologist
