National Radio Club 2004 convention
The 2004 National Radio Club convention was held in Batavia, N.Y.,
and organized by a team including your editor's esteemed colleague,
Scott Fybush. That meant that we got to see nearly everything that
was worth seeing in upstate New York, and with the help of some
Canadian members of the club including Saul Chernos, we were able to
extend the convention by an extra day with tours of some Toronto
stations. I drove all the way.
Thanks to everyone involved in the convention, including: the
Fybushes (Scott, Lisa, Ari, and Freckles), Jerry Bond, Saul Chernos,
Greg Coniglio, Brian Cunningham, Dan Fischer, Larry Keats, Craig
Kingcaid, Rick Lucas, Joe Puma, Jim Renfrew, Bob Savage, Brian Smith,
Nolan Stephany, and Roberto Vissani. My sincerest apologies to anyone
whose name I've left out or otherwise mislaid in the four-month delay
between taking these photos and writing the captions.
