Default Hamfest ticket

Yes, like you said - not all tickets have that on them. Maybe it is
catching on. It was mostly the older guy's that did it. The younger crowd
is more of a click group and not really interested in making distant
friends. Or probably it was a club there that was doing it.
This was at the Dayton Ohio ham fest. Advertised as the biggest electronics
swap meet in the USA.



I used to go to the Dayton Hamfest whenever I could get there. I
lived in Middletown, Ohio, so I went most years from 1970, till I left
Ohio in 1987. It was around an hour's drive to Harra Arena. I like the
smaller Cincinnati Hamfest, too. My main competitor sold their surplus
wire and used Dukane school intercom equipment there, and there were
lots of boxes marked "Free". ;-)


OT: Michael Terrell - did you have a happy birthday



Thanks for asking, but no, I was too sick to do anything.
