Logan Ut     Swaptoberfest       Oct 12   see this link for details,

Ham radio swap meet,,,  https://barconline.org/swaptoberfest/

Some years this is great , others not so good,  last year was a good one, and it seems
to be growing slowly,,,   it might be better if those UT guys would learn to advertise .
let me gripe,,  they don't even have it listed on their home page, you've got to go looking for it ...    
 

Utah Valley ARC

Now,  this is a link to the UVARC club in Utah,,   NØJI  writes their newsletter,  this month's newsletter he has a detailed discussion about
types of connectors,  and other things,   
WELL WORTH TAKING A LOOK !

A great presentation ,,,  BRASS TACKS starts on page 9..
