To encourage socializing amongst participants and to entice more people to stay to the end of our events, our club serves pizza as a snack near the end of our meets. These are the tasty thin crust pizzas that are served from the Landmark 1850 Inn and The Terminal banquet hall.

Historical note: The Landmark 1850 Inn is Milwaukee's oldest tavern.

Is this close to the milwaukee airport ?
I need to know, to book a hotel.

MAY bring a few things to sell, maybe a 21FJP22 (have to test it) , weak but usuable 16GP22, and maybe a few other tubes and such.

Come on up!

A 3-hour drive is actually very little. Many of us have done 1,000+ mile round trip drives just to pick up TVs and radios. You've got to go where they are, they don't always show up on your doorstep.

Besides the two Bakelite Admiral consoles I'm bringing, I know of another club member who has one for sale. He wasn't sure he'd be bringing it along because he'd have to drag it out of his basement, but if he doesn't, ask me and I'll point him out to you so you can talk with him.

I'll be up and on the road at 3AM to get there early to set up the club's hospitality table and donation auction area before I start to unload my van & trailer.

That's right everyone. I'll have a full Sienna minivan and a 12-foot long enclosed trailer full of goodies to bring down.

I will be driving a LOT farther than 3 hrs and i am coming.


I DO wonder--is there any interest in my 21FJP22 tube? It seems good, and not any real cataracts I think. I will try and get a pix tomorror night of the face. I will NOT be needing it after all for that combo. It still has all of the neck hardware from the 24MC32 or so Zenith set it was in.

Also--is there anyone who might want my 16GP4 tube---it IS weak, but with a bit of help, say 7V or so on the fil--it comes up to decent emission and that IS a rare tube.

DO NOT really want to bring a bunch of CRTs that I have to drag all the way back home, after all.

If it tests good, and it's priced right, I'm interested.

I could probably squeeze a 21FJP22 in the back seat of the corolla. I have a CTC12 RCA that could use it since the one in it has been necked.

This sounds like a well-thought out event.

The only big event here is the Delaware Valley Historic Radio Club swap meet in Kutztown (surrounded by farms) in May and Sept for the last 15+ years, but it gets lots of travelers from as afar away as VA and MA.
It is mostly a radio event but I have been taking TV sets there for the last 2 years just to encourage the same.
There was even a guy from Wisco last May selling some very interesting tubes.

I will be paying close attention to how this goes down because we need to do this in the Mid-Atlantic Quad-state area here that is PA-MD-NJ-DE

The caution note about dumping sets is a good one. Good luck, you seem to be in a hotbed of TV interest

Any interest in a 20VAGP22 20" color tube from a heathkit ? could bring it if someone is interested. --pretty sure it is good, not sure about cataracts. NOT a round tube--came from a SS set from 69-71 or so. Still have the chassis too. Still has the "heathkit shield box" on the tube around it.

Pics of 21FJP22 tube ::Notice front--NO cataracts !!

Crack and piece missing from base--but useable anyway.
Loaded with Zenith neck gear for the moment.

Tests pretty good on all guns after wake up. Not new--but more than useable for some old roundie needing it.

How much for the FJP22? I may bring up my 12LP4 to sell or trade. I am sure I can get it in the car . Of course then I have to figure out what to do with it until the first of August when I come home.

If you're in the Chicago area that long, you ought to at least stay for the ARCI Radiofest. http://www.antique-radios.org/radiofest_info.html
