*** Continuing the tradition of Hosstraders, a.k.a. NEAR-Fest (New England Amateur Radio Festival) ***
While we are talking about YouTube videos, here are a few videos done by my childhood buddy and fraternal HAM Radio friend, Scott Mitchell - WA1MYQ. The first one captures Hosstraders at the Deerfield Fairgrounds back in 1983.

http://wa1myq.multiply.com/video/item/12/Nearfest_spring_2007You will see many of the old boys still at it, HAMfesting away in both videos, which are almost a quarter of a century apart! I still remember my first Hosstraders in the 70's as if it were yesterday. I hope YOU'LL have as many great moments as I've had over the last 3 decades plus, at what we have all come to known and loved as 'Hosstraders', a.k.a. NEAR-Fest.
Enjoy!
Sincere 7 3,
