 Vintage radio festival resurrects old technology

The Johnson City Press reports on the *Sixth Annual* *W9DYV Vintage Radio
Festival* which took place July 21-22

The newspaper says:

Dozens of vintage-radio enthusiasts from across the country converged on
Jonesborough's Storybook Farm [Tennessee] Saturday morning to learn more
about resurrecting the technology that once dominated mass communication
decades ago.

*Nick Tusa [K5EF]*, organizer of the Sixth Annual W9DYV Vintage Radio
Festival, said the event, which features a swap meet for vintage-radio
enthusiasts and presentations on radio technology, was first started as a
way to teach people more about early radio technology.

Many of the visitors come from an era when many amateur radio operators
built their own equipment. And some attendees, Tusa said, are younger folks
interested in vintage radio technology.

“We draw in a lot of people who are interested in restoring and operating
vintage radio equipment from back in the ’40s, ’50s and ’60s,� Tusa said.
“A lot of these guys build their own equipment.�

Tusa said the presentations at the festival aim to help people use their
vintage radios to communicate with people across the world, much like he
did when he first got into radio technology in the ’60s.
