I'm turning 54 on July 14th.
How about passing the hat for a fellow forum member?

I won't be holding my breath though.

I'm going to be back in Cincy on the 12th. I plan on going.

I would be happy to buy shit for people that are far away. Within reason.

I've only seen what they have to offer at the Dayton Hamfest, so not sure what is there.

If you know, and you need something. Send me a PM. I'll pick it up for you.

I think it's about a 2 and a half hour drive for me, but I'm going to try to be there!

Good to see some of you guys will be there.

I haven't been to previous tent sales, but I'd imagine they have scratch and dent stuff and lots of overstock/unpopular items on the shelvs?

I have no AK garb so Ill haveto wear something a bit unique. How about a dark brown shirt with "Germany" and the flag on the front. Just incase I run into any of ya out there.

Ill be there early and out by noon.. hopefully

Ive got friends lugging their pc's over for some drunken gaming tomorrow. Can't be late for my own party! :beer:

I'm back, I didn't get much but here's some highlights.

-Lots of scratch and dent cabs, even the high end finish ones. Tons of small 2 way cabs with precut holes.

-Skids of "defective" Dayton prebuilt powered 10" and 12" subs for $25. Buy 2 and hope the same parts aren't dead. You'd have a $150 sub for $40 (after 20% discount)

-A box full of these sweet hivi coaxials: a 1 1/8" round planar w/ copper phase plug surrounded by a 3 1/2" ring radiator mid (both 6ohm). All on a solid aluminum machined face. $35ea before the 20% discount. I'm realy kicking myself for not picking up a pair.

Nothing that I saw was "flying off the shelvs" so a pretty relaxed atmosphere.

I just got some things I needed for my project and a few $3, 13.5v 1.8A PSUs (perfect for squeezing out every last drop from those little SI T-amps)

free food and drinks, free raffle for a pile of stuff. Nice! :D
