Ham Radio Hobbyists to Have Festival at N. Hunterdon High on March 11:

More than 30 vendors of radio, electronics, and accessories at bargain prices are expected at the North Hunterdon Regional High School cafeteria on Route 31 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 11, 2017, for the annual Cherryville Repeater Association “Hamfest.” The Hamfest has been presented for more than a decade at North Hunterdon Regional High School. According to the organizers, it’s a “flea market” of bargains for amateur radio hobbyists, complete with attendance by KJI Electronics for major equipment sales. There will also be an operating Flex Radio station at the Hamfest to provide hands on operation of Software Define Radio (SDR) technology. Software-defined radio (SDR) is a relatively new development wherein many of the traditional radio circuits are simulated by software programs, giving the radio features and capabilities that are either difficult, more expensive, or impossible to achieve in traditional radios. Door prizes will be awarded, and food will be for sale.
