SRARC set up at the Fire Training Station in Nampa for this year's Idaho QSO Party.  We had over 20 Hams show up to join in the fun.  The theme was "vintage radio".                         (Some of the operators were a little "vintage",too!)

WB7VEQ, Steve; K7NSW, Richard; and W7RLS, Bob working the radios.

W7RLS, Bob happily making contacts.

KF7ETM, Jeff checking out one of the Vintage rigs set up. The rig is a 1960's Hammarlund HD-170 Ham band receiver in mint condition!

KETMF, Deb and KE7JKD, Kay finding the club's projector on line!

W7RLS, Bob's set up. A 1955 military RT-68

6 meter rig. A 1977 Kenwood TS-700A, and a newer Kenwood TS-570S.

Steve's making contacts in dream land! Good thing he doesn't use VOX! ("What's that QRM,Joe? Sounds like a chainsaw...")

KD7HGS, John working with Digital mode contacts. Dutch Brothers is what makes these 24 hour events possible. Hi-Hi!

Some of the equipment used. All those PC's are part of the city of Nampa's EOC setup. Notice the spaghetti farm growing behind the tables.
