4 TH ANNUAL CENTRAL ELECTRONICS BOAT ANCHOR EVENT
JULY 23, 2016

THE FAMILY OF THE LATE WES SCHUM, W9DYV welcomes the Amateur Radio 
community to our 4th Annual summer gathering in celebration
of the contributions that he and his company, Central Electronics, made 
to the hobby during the early years of Single Sideband.

This year, the event will be held at his estate which is now known as 
Storybrook Farm, in the EasternTennessee community of Jonesborough.

THE CELEBRATION WILL BE COMPOSED OF TWO COMPONENTS. In the exhibit 
arena, owners and operators of radios dating from the late
‘40s to the early ‘60s, both commercial and home brew, will be on hand 
to demonstrate the most rare and unique examples of technology from
those times. Most of the exhibits will be examples of early SSB 
operation but some other interesting pieces such as vintage WWII 
stations are also
invited. Space permitting, operators in the exhibit arena are welcome to 
offer some vintage equipment for buy/sell/trade. For all those not invited
to display equipment in the exhibit arena, entry fee will be $10.

Adjacent to the arena, a grassland of about 10 acres is available for a 
free tailgate swapfest. Participants are informed by way of this
paragraph that no services other than port-a-can(s) will be provided.  
However, depending on significant attendance, a food truck on the
grounds or other arrangements may be possible.

Anyone wishing to participate as a demonstrator in the exhibit arena 
will require the prior invitation and approval of Mr. Nick Tusa, K5EF. 
nick.tusa at tusaconsulting.com.  To insure that all tailgaters have a 
place, and to enable planning, those wishing to tailgate are requested
to email Lynn Fisk, K5LYN. k5lyn at arrl.net.
