I'm ok with this, can someone work on that one? I'm thinking of doing a 4x6 size, but I can find out. On Wed, Mar 27, 2024 at 3:04 PM Brian L.

Kennett Classic Surplus Pickup and VCFEast
by Bill Degnan 27 Mar '24

27 Mar '24

If you intend to come to Kennett Classic to pick up items because you'll be relatively close for the Vintage Computer Festival weejebd (KC is 2 hours south west of VCF east), please let me know asap so I can set the coverage schedule for that weekend. I am thinking possibly of being open that Friday night, but I need to get a feel for what would work for all parties involved. Items purchased must be picked up before 4/19. Questions? https://kennettclassic.com/contact.cfm Thanks Bill

100ft ethernet cable needed for VCF East
by Jeffrey Brace 24 Mar '24

24 Mar '24

I was able to get two 100ft cables through Martin, but I might need one more for an exhibitor who desires it. Is there anyone that has one that we can borrow for VCF East? Thanks! Jeff Brace Vintage Computer Festival East Showrunner

Hello! Mine is the one that's all of 304.8 meters, (100 Foot) and is terminated correctly. (Well it's wearing the proper connectors.) I believe one other has a roll of the stuff that can be setup appropriately.... But I am not sure. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8(a)gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."

Ham Radio Magazine...complete run all issues, bound hardcopy
by Bill Degnan 24 Mar '24

24 Mar '24

https://photos.app.goo.gl/yaehqAnEpj5YJXFY7 Let me know privately if anyone wants a complete run of Ham Radio magazine, professionally bound into hard cover volumes. Available for pickup in Wilmington Del. I'd take them but they're not on topic for Kennett Classic. I will pass your name along to the donor. Maybe someone at the InfoAge's Radio Museum might want this? It would be a shame if these were trashed. A person could fit the entire thing in a hatchback or SUV cargo area. Let me know how I can help make this happen, but I am not available to hold them myself or deliver them. Bill

Possible purchase transportation
by William Sudbrink 24 Mar '24

24 Mar '24

By any chance, is there anyone that is going to be visiting the Kennet Classic Computer Museum this week and then coming to the System Source repair workshop this weekend that would be willing to transport a relatively small purchase? Thanks, Bill Sudbrink
