Hamvention Travel Cam
It’s back for the 4th year! Streaming video and audio from Hamvention 2006 http://wa5kub.com
This will be our 4th year to broadcast live video of our drive to hamvention (550 miles) and then the 3 days outside in the fleamarket. This year the helmet cam will be back. It will let people around the world get a view of all the things we look at as we walk around.
The streaming cam page also has its own chat room and hams from around the world watched, chatted, and enjoyed it for the past 3 years.
There are no pop-ups or advertisements. Just something we like to do each year and have fun. It lets hams take part in ham radio if they are too far away to travel or health does not permit it.
Below I have included some information regarding our schedule and the link that people will need to access in case you will put a link on your site. Please spread the word to other hams and ham clubs. The more people we have on, the more fun we will have.
Streaming Webcast Schedule
We will be broadcasting from the beginning until the end of the show each day Friday May 20th through Sunday May 22th from our outside fleamarket spaces 3350-3351. Please come by and say hello and wave to your loved ones back home.
Also watch for us as we convoy from Memphis, TN to Dayton, OH. On Wednesday May 17th and set up our fleamarket space on Thursday May 18th.. This is a 550 mile drive and will take us about 10 hours. We will depart Memphis about 8:00 am CSTand arrive in Dayton about 7:00 pm EST. This will be our fourth year to broadcast the drive live. Chat with us on the chat screen as we drive. Hams from around the world followed our trip and chatted with us last year. Watch us and try to guess where we are. After hamvention, we will be broadcasting our drive back home. Watch for us Sunday May 21st from about 1:00 pm until about 9:00pm CST.
The link is http://wa5kub.com
The site is up and running today and will be on 24 by 7 from now until Hamvention. Please visit it, log in and chat with us and others as we test it. We need you to help stress test it. We have recorded video running on it at the present but will switch over to live video when we start our trip. Video clips running now are the Tonight show CW vs text messaging, news clips of us from local TV stations, The Hamband (A video of a ham in a tux and top hat singing a ham song while hanging on his tower at 100 feet), Storm chaser videos, and ICOM videos that were taken at Hamvention over a couple years.
Thanks, Tom WA5KUB
