Please mark your calendar for a FREE radio meet sponsored by the Mid Atlantic Antique Radio Club (MAARC) For the first time last year, the club invited amateur radio operators to attend the fest and it was an overwhelming success for all involved. The invitation is out again for this year. Again, this is a FREE meet. No entrance or tailgate space charge.

For maps and other info visit our web site: www.maarc.org Last year, there was a miscommunication about the starting time. This was due to the fact that other organizations have access to the grounds and opened the gates early. We apologize for that. This year, the official starting time is 7:00AM. Early arrivals may not be able to enter before that time. AUCTION: The auction last year was huge and went on for hours. This year, there will be items from collectors who are downsizing along with excess items which have been donated to the Radio History Society. All this in addition to individual equipment which has been put on the block. This promises to be a great auction with many bargains. The auction this year will begin at noon and is inside. All other activities are in the parking lot. **************Looking for a car that's sporty, fun and fits in your budget? Read reviews on AOL Autos.
