FROM THE FIELD
Elko Mining Expo 2012

It was our pleasure to be an exhibitor this year at the 2012 Elko Mining Exposition. Wonderful to see the mining community and their families having fun and learning about what's new with Tunnel Radio and our industry.

The attendance was phenomenal with an estimated 6,000 people at the exposition.  High winds on the last day did not stop us, or the attendees, from having an exciting time.

Thank you Elko and the convention staff for your hospitality and support!

Las Vegas is next, the MINExpo 2012 is just around the corner.  We have some surprises planned. Please be sure to visit us in Booth 4737 in September.
