The submission is a little tardy (entirely my fault), but Chuck KG4CGC sent us these photos from the Shelby Hamfest in Shelby, North Carolina at the beginning of September. Enjoy!!
Suspender-sexy
The North Carolina Hamsexy Shocktroops
The “Laundry Hamper”
Elvis lives, and apparantly he’s a ham.
The Hamsexy Shocktroops, against the wall
For Sale: One HamChair. Gently used.
Whacker-wares, this table only.
Thanks for the submissions, Chuck!!
David KC2JNS submitted these photos from the Western Connecticut Hamfest in Newtown CT. As you can see, ham radio is still a young, vibrant hobby on he cutting edge of technology and popular culture.
The main drag – one of CT’s largest hamfests
Checking out the wares
Assorted old electronic shit, a orbital sander, a Linksys router and a phone with no dialing-thingie
Again, proving that Ham Radio is a young, vibrant hobby
Maybe, if you’re lucky, you’ll find microphones from *this* century.
The amazing ‘everything for 50 cents’ box. Even the Gameboy with a broken screen.
The submitter’s son tries vainly to find anything of value. Even the broken Gameboy got a pass.
No Hamfest is complete with a table of crap manned by a woman in a wheelchair.
Thanks!! If you want to submit photos from your local hamfest, send them to [email protected]!!
We had a pretty cool net, not too many folks, but a respectable showing.
Here are the brave souls.
Since I was wiped out from buying a new set of wheels and starting the professional looking install, I had no topic, so we discussed the weather *GASP* and the merits of the 102 ” Whip *DOUBLE GASP*.
Next weeks net should be hosted by Jaymz, K2JSV and I have heard from a good source his topic will be about the benefits of a prostate transplant for the cure of erectile dysfunction.
Stay Tuned !
As a somewhat follow-up to K2JSV’s story on the Transexual Ham radio scammer (The Black Widow) below, Joe KØNEB stumbled across this photo of K7VO in his Dayton photo archive.
Enjoy!
At first glance, it looks like an everyday, normal silver Jeep Liberty with an enormous lightbar. Upon closer look, the ratsnest prevents itself. Mark K8MHZ, our Michigan Bureau Chief, sent us these photos. This beast belongs to Shawn KB8UFI. As always, click on the photo for the largest image.
Alright, alright…. Not bad from this angle…
Woah…. Are those antennas? Antennae?
Something tells me that glass is going to have a hell of a time closing after a few years…
Like a nerdy Marshall Stack….
Passengers? Of course…. who knows what’s living in that pile.
And another net’s in the books. 14 checkins, not out best turnout, but not our worst either:

Tonight’s topic was: “What is the best and/or worst repeater in your area?” Several people had stories to tell of wide-ranged machines with impeccable audio quality and multiple VOIP features, while others reported machines overrun with old farts that do nothing but ragchew with their CB buddies and bitch about operating procedures whenever someone outside their clique dares to throw their call in.
As usual, a grand old time was had by all. Tune in again next week for another installment of the world’s most hated net!
Hi all,
Bear with me, this is my first attempt at a post.
If you like it, tell your friends, if you don’t, kiss the skyporn logo.
I hear from hams that are clueless, that “you shouldn’t mix porn with ham radio”.
They don’t get it. WE DONT DO PORN … well not “HERE” anyway.
But we do like an occasional lady to grace our pages, and Michael
K6MFW was gracious enough to share some photos with us.
Hi gang,
Here is my submission of what may be considered hamsexy material. Sorry no
photos of slobs with whacker packs or old whacker mobiles. What we have
here are some race chicks and a cheerleader for the Oakland Raiders
modeling with my Bendix King EPU handheld. These were taken at the San
Jose Grand Prix race which I participated with ARES/RACES personnel
providing comms support and amateur television for the city officials
during the race. During my spare time I found these gals and took
opportunity for photos.The cheerleader for the Oakland Raiders is Candy and she was willing to
pose for photos for free. I felt obligated to buy a Raiderette calendar
which she autographed it for me. I had her sign it to the K6BEN ATV group
(http://www.batnet.com/mfwright/k6ben.html).Now some of you may ask why I had them pose with an old handheld. I am a
working man and not like some of you stinking rich types that carry the
latest and greatest radios from the Big M. I had a newer Icom dualband but
it’s just too boring looking.
