Bob Heil presentation to Lincoln Shortwave Club

Bob Heil, K9EID, gave a presentation this evening to the Lincoln Shortwave Club from his radio shack/lab in Illinois USA, via Skype.

Octagon Technology set up the wifi network and presentation equipment for the event.

Who is Bob Heil? He built that box for Peter Frampton, friends with Joe Walsh, worked with The Who, the Grateful Dead etc – get more details from his Wikipedia page.

This is Bob Heil and his wife Sarah. Bob came over from the US to demonstrate his audio equipment and to give some lectures at the show. The National Hamfest and LSWC took him out to Lincoln for the evening, which included an opportunity for him to play the organ in Lincoln Cathedral.

The National Hamfest 2011 – Sunday

It is Sunday 26th September by this time next week the Hamfest will be over – except for the cleaning up. I am here to check the building before we start the set up, so I thought I would post a photo of the hall empty – just add one Hamfest.
