Ham Nation Day Open House
Loading...
Uploaded by K7AGE on Aug 21, 2011
Yesterday I went down to Petaluma Ca to visit Leo Laporte's new TWiT studio. Leo had recently taken and passed his Technician and General class Amateur Radio licenses. Leo produces many pod and video cast shows, including a new ham radio show called Ham Nation. Ham Nation is hosted by Bob Heil K9EID, Gordon West WB6NOA and George Thomas W5JDX of Amateur Logic TV. Leo now has a new and old ham radio station in his studio. Icom has provided several new radios, including the top of the line IC-7800. For the older classic equipment there is the mighty Collins 500 watt AM transmitter.
Saturday August 21, Leo hosted an Ham Radio open house. Leo, Bob, Gordon, George and many other hams were there. I came down and met the gang and shot some video.
Enjoy,
Randy

That was fun. The wife and I ended up at Stinson Beach that Saturday, but rolled back through Petaluma, but I had left my directions at home. So through your video I got to see what I missed. Thanks.
