Yup!
And just printed out my Videokarma Avatar to tape on to my badge, so I won't be in disguise this year.

With SkyLine you won't need the Beano . . . . and if you still think you might, you can order the four way without beans . . . .

Yeah, well, I sleep in the basement on my recliner on the weekends for two reasons. The first is because I like to pass out watching Lockup reruns on my '57 Zenith 21" B/W.

The second reason is that we usually have pizza or tacos for dinner Saturday. Um....yeah.

I won't be wearing the uniform of a Starfleet officer or anything, but I'm easy to spot. Just look for the bald guy

If see a 19” 1963 Motorola TS584 BW metal set, or even just cabinet parts, I’m very interested.
Mine is missing the UHF knobset and three C-B-V smooth chromed knobs below speaker and the whole silver plastic front is busted at a corner.
It was picked up by the handle, which let go and dropped 5 feet onto the road, but the battle-axe still works.
Safe trip to ETF, go easy on the chili, diversify for health 

I need a yellow minion suit with a big batwing on it before I show up there

I look about like I did last year but a bit SMALLER now. Probably 10 pounds smaller or so.

Same ol' beat-up red minivan...but it GETS ME THERE..and is PAID FOR too.

I will be there sometime tomorrow evening--hopefully by 7-8PM. Staying till Sunday afternoon this time around.

Welp, I bought the CTC-7 Stanford ( http://www.earlytelevision.org/reita..._21CD8775.html ), A Dumont Doghouse, an Admiral 19A11 chassis, the correct table for my 8TS30, a bubble magnifier, two other consoles, a GE 10" table model, bunches of tubes, and about 600 lb worth of broadcast gear including 3 IVC 500-A color broadcast cameras. Plus other stuff that's so buried in my car I couldn't even get to it.

Had a friend with a box truck there to grab my consoles. Having serious doubt that I can fit my suitcase in the car at this point

...and back towards home tomorrow evening. Was sure great hanging out with you guys

Is anyone heading home through, or close to, Pittsburgh that has room for a 10" table top set? I had to leave abruptly in the middle of the night last night and left a set behind that I won in the auction. If anyone can help I would be very indebted. Just give me a call or text seven two four four nine three four two one one.

I can even meet someone at the New Stanton exit if they are headed east on 70/76/PA Turnpike.
