Shelby, NC Hamfest is always held Labor Day weekend. Located 53 miles
from Charlotte. I normally return on Sunday's to continue the flea
Market if in need of a particular item.
Regards, Jim

Any neat new radios or accessories announced at Dayton?

No, but the $25 entrance fee was new to me, as was the $10 shuttle ride.
Haven't been there in a few years, but I asked the management to kiss me
goodbye this time, since I don't intend to get raped twice. Would

estimate
that attendance is down 30-40 percent from Dayton's hey day. Still the
biggest, but plenty of room both indoors and outdoors. If the League

hadn't
taken an entire wing of the inside, there would have been an echo in

there.
Another year or so of this and Shelby will be the king of the hill and
Dayton will be a memory.

What's the Shelby?

I've never been to Dayton, but your report don't sound like it's
something on my schedule. Where and when is Shelby?

Shelby, NC. In southwest NC, along the border with SC. Check it out on any
roadmap or Mapquest. I forget the date but do a Google search for "Shelby
hamfest".
