To those who attended: What were your impressions of the the hamvention this
year? Even though a few more tickets were officially sold over last year, I
would guess that the flea market was down at least 25%. Certainly, the weather
did not cooperate, especially on Saturday.

Is eBay permanenetly eroding into the Hamvention fleamarket?

Good foreign attendance this year, with hams from the UK,Canada, Germany, and
of course, Japan.

I managed to stop by the new Fair Radio store in Lima and was amazed at the
size of the place over the old location. Naturally, Japanese hams were there to

survey anything made by Collins.

Will you return next year? Comments welcome.
