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.

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.

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.
