I'm back from scenic Dayton. Drove back on Monday and had to crawl the
last 20 miles on the PA turnpike (multiple accidents on both sides of the
road) to get to NJ. Saw lots of people while quickly walking the flea
market and many others stopped by my spaces to say hello. Tried and

Yeah well after buying more than a couple of big mod transformers with shorted
windings, the gold turned out to be lead.
I suppose you could ship even the big stuff through UPS. It would still be
cheaper than car rental and fuel.
By the way, I still have this Raytheon 2.5 KW mod transformer.

I keep saying I want to go to Fair Radio, but just haven't managed to make it

I just checked the Hamvention site again and they are saying that all ticket
requests received by 3 April have mailed as April 11. Well, today, according
to my calender, is April 18 and the mailman just left without leaving any
correspondence from Dayton. Does that tell you anything?

The original date for Dayton was the 3rd weekend in April. It might have
been snowed on and was often unseasonably cold, but it hardly ever got
rained out. I remember in the mid 70's one of their brochures promoting
the hamfest made it a point to claim that in 22 years, it had been rained
Holding Dayton a week later? Isn't that the start of hurricane season?

It isn't really a Dayton Hamvention unless there's rain at least one day.
Back in the early 90's, when it was held in April, I remember two days of
rain and Sunday with snow flurries. Hopefully, I'll be at my same spots
again this year.
