Photos From The 2nd Hammin' In The Park Event

The 2nd Hamming In The Park event took place at Burns Park in North Little Rock, Arkansas...at a site next to the Arkansas River Trail, and bordering the Arkansas River. This event was sponsored by the Cabot Area Simplex Group. All photos were taken by, and are courtesy of Jerry Dixon (N5WVI). Participants included Daryl Stout (at the time, AE5WX, now N5VLZ), Brian Kessler (N1WNC), Richard Thompson (W5SUB (SK)), and Steve Tune (KC5FWE).

A photograph of the inside of N1WNC's Elecraft K2 transceiver...which he built himself...and it was quite impressive to see all of the internal components.
