Peter used to run a laser engraving business in that same building as Frank's shop.
He is trying to help Frank's family to deal with Frank's possessions.
He'd like to have a final Frankenfest at Frank's shop on September 16 if at all possible.
A Frankenmorial if you will.
Frank's family doesn't know what to do with his electronics and thinks it would be better off in AK'ers' hands than in a dumpster.
I'm no organizer so if someone would be gracious enough to help Peter please PM me for his info.
I had a similar issue on iOS. Used my computer and saw the options.I signed in, but could not "drop a pin"
Did I do something wrong?
Sept 16th is the NY metro gathering, so can't make that date.Mike- I'm working with Frank's friend Greg to help set something up. I'll touch base with Peter too so we're coordinated.
Might not be enough time for Sep 16, but end of Sep. tbd.
Thanks for posted the link Adam.I won't be able to make it on the 16th, as I'll be on my way home from a radio swapmeet in PA. Hopefully, something can be scheduled a bit later in the month. Anyway, for those who haven't seen it in the other thread, an obituary for Frank has been posted: http://www.philbincomeaufh.com/book-of-memories/3067634/Carpenter-Franklin/obituary.php
We're getting a good collection of pins going; fascinating to see where people are located. .
If we could make it the following weekend, that would be better since Joanne and I will be out of town, but want to help.Peter used to run a laser engraving business in that same building as Frank's shop.

Sturbridge Host Hotel is large enough and has rooms right there. Its close to I84 - 20 and the mass pike.
They have HUGE gun shows there ever year. A lot larger than the Frankin fest..... Just an idea.....
When looking for a location for the NY metro gathering, I was also considering a local Elks Lodge building, which I've been in many times for events. I didn't get to check with them for pricing, but I would guess renting the space, or part of it for the day would be reasonable. Also Knights of Columbus buildings may be reasonable.We can talk more about this in Clinton on the 30th.
My inclination is to find an Elks Lodge (or similar). They're likely to be less expensive and more tolerant of noise and other aspects of our events.
Ohm F is on your mind.......If we could make it the following weekend, that would be better since Joanne and I will be out of town, but want to help.
