Sounds interesting. Any plans to post video afterward?
Echoing Rick’s post, it would be great to see the video. Some of us who are familiar w/ Fred Braun but no longer live near the RF valley would love to see the video.
Hi Rick and Rick,
Here are the videos, the first ones are shorter and then the panel discussion is a bit longer… Hope you enjoy!!
