I almost didn't think of this for GNHLUG, but maybe it's of greater
than usual interest since Hosstraders happening this spring

One of the first electronics flea markets of the year is the one
put on by the Contoocook Valley Radio Club, in Henniker NH.  It's
much smaller than Hosstraders, and only the one morning (Sunday)
instead of Hosstraders's Friday+Saturday, but it IS a flea market,
and there's "stuff".  Janet and I will have a table;  if anyone
would like to stop by, either to have a place to park their "stuff"
or just to say hello, please do.  I'm going to print up some OpenCDs
and take whatever Fedora and Ubuntu CDs I can find, and handouts of
the wiki home page, so GNHLUG will be represented...

This is the club that hosted the tour at the Hancock Radio
Observatory last fall -- some LUG members got in on that.  The
program for tomorrow has some interesting things (for geeks):
a "how antennas work" presentation by Dale AF1T, which is great
(he demonstrates live antennas of different designs with little
light bulbs in the near field of a 432MHz yagi - very cool);
a session on Amateur Radio Astronomy, by Bob KB1QV; and of course,
"stuff".
