You'll have to bring your The Wire set up as a preamp. I modded a Gilmore Lite to turn it into a pre, would be interesting to compare if there is time

One of the things I missed last year was the door prises. Perhaps we can add some time for that function.
An old college friend died last September. I visited with him just before he died and he gave me all of his electronic stuff. He didn't like being a technician so he became a teacher instead. He taught electricty/electronics to high school kids. I have sorted the 8 boxes of stuff he gave me and got it down to one box. SWMBO wants it gone. It will be all on the free stuff/door prize table.
I guess I did a big favour for another friend and when he was in Hershey PA. He picked up an old basic tube tester and gave it to me. It seems to work with the tubes I have. If anybody wants I can bring it to test your tubes.

OK! I'm glad to see this coming together.
I'll tell a few of my relatives/friends who've accompanied me in the past.
1st on my "must see" will be Bearberry's Lotus BVR build, and there will be questions. (Long ago, I did pick up some BOFU drivers on clearout, and my goal was to put them in one of the Lotus's predecessors i.e. the Chang or half-Chang. The plans that I printed (nla) were only 1 or 2-page, and didn't provide much info about the interior.)
Look forward to getting the gang back together.

John mentioned a gun fight with our tiny little preamps. Maybe I watch too much TV

Ha! It sounded vaguely familiar but I couldn't place it.
I didn't get the noisy cricket reference in the 1st place, either. Thanks for the link.
John,
I actually didn't think too much about the BIB design. If I recall correctly, Scottmoose sort of developed the BVR as an evolution of (his knowledge of) BIB, but that didn't really play into my thoughts. I just sort of like the appearance of the BVR, and the fact that vent(s) and driver are both front-firing. A key factor for me is that the Chang & half-Chang are/were (somewhat) documented designs, which is better for my experience level.

Mark and Dave - Would you agree to help organize a schedule like we did last year?
