Stan - N5JFQ has shared some shots from HamCom 2018.
Stan also included some comments for each photo.
Hey Keith, well I’m about 2 weeks behind, but here are the IOOK pics from HamCom.
HamCom
2018 was moved back to Plano, TX, after many complaints about the convention
center in Irving, TX.
Look
who I run into first, Joe - WA5FLT and newly assimilated Darell - WA3OPY.
Interesting that ICM shirts are the same color as IOOK shirts.
Well
here’s Joe and I. Note that I haven’t even made it inside to purchase my
ticket.
Young
River and Chas - AI0OK. Guess who’s photo is on the front of River’s
t-shirt.
The answer to the question about the photo on River’s t-shirt is ukulele player “Tiny Tim"
More
Texas IOOK’ers Ron - AA5RT and Wil - WB5YFX.
Since
we’re back in Plano, lunch is back at Poor Richard’s
Cafe. Note that Liz
found front door parking for her bright green Jeep.
Here’s the IOOK crew just being served lunch. Joe is hidden from view, but his better half, Cathy, is there.
Yes,
Stan is displaying a plate full of chicken fried steak with gravy.
Stan and Wil. Wil has just received the new IOOK
official mug from Chas after leaving the restaurant.
Cathy
and Joe with a new IOOK mug on the sidewalk in front of the restaurant.
If one stands on the sidewalk of a busy restaurant too long while holding a cup (mug), it won’t be long before someone drops a coin or two in it.
That’s it Keith, 10 pics total. It appears I sent pic 4 twice.
Although I mentioned Liz and her Jeep, she didn’t make it this year. Mike Salem and Jim Shideler didn’t make it either.
Next is Ham Holiday here in OKC, in late July.

Many thanks to Stan for sharing these shots with the IOOK!
