Kutztown Radio Show - Spring and Fall 2024

 May 10-11, 2024

I wasn't able to attend any hamfests this season but I made sure I'd be at both events at Kutztown.

It's still mainly a radio meet but more hifi equipment and enthusiasts show up each year!

Dynaco MKIII monoblock amps on top of JBL  L100s

Knight tuner and amp, Luxman CL35 preamp + a rare Brook mono 2A3 amp

Western Electric?

Western Electric (London) PP 275A amplifier   

My favorite digital filter = Western Electric 111C repeat coils!

Dared VP845 SE amp for under a grand

Rek O Kut idler drive + a Dynakit ST70 lurking behind

Presto studio turntable

How about an AR turntable for $200, or...

...a nicely restored Fairchild 412 for $400?

2 x Technics SP15(?), mixing console and an APT Holman preamp far back

Stereo MPX Fisher FMR1 broadcast tuner

Revox B77 + Olson tube integrated

Theta tube preamp

A pair of Altec 604-8Gs 

September 20-21, 2024

Early bird...

Crosley C3 turntable, Hafler DH101 preamp + Radio Shack amp (with meters) driving RCA Optimus Pro LX5s

Rogers (UK) tube integrated amp

B&W, SAE, Hafler, Proton, Paradigm, etc.

RCA horns to complete a Ubangi set up

A pair of AR4s

Marantz 7, Fairchild compressor + Western Electric mixer and etc.

Dynaco FM3 in an Audio Research suit 😮

But I'd much rather have the genuine FM3...😉

Tekton 🤐

Yamaha NS250E open baffle speakers

Jensen PM12

1930s RCA horn

A pair of Altec 604Es with crossovers 

Truth be told, I've accumulated enough tubes and parts to last my lifetime. I only attend these events to hang out with old friends. I just wish the lull between September and May is filled by other events!

Enjoy the slide show!
