Quartzfest for Ham Radio

Is anyone here planning to attend QuartzFest? (Jan 2019) A week of boondocking near QuartzSite in the Sonoran desert with Amateur Radio folk and activities. I have never been but hoping to learn some new tricks for ham radio and antenna installations in truck campers.
  • That looks like a cool event! Wished there was something like that in my area. I wonder if there is a special event station for that.
  • We'll be there then, but can't boondock right now since our fridge doesn't want to work on propane. My truck/camper is already setup with the HAM rig and can be used in the truck or the TC.

    Yes, in recent years there HAS been a special event station. Quartzfest is, in my opinion, a very unique event for hams. Highly recommend anyone with an RV attempt to attend.
