Best Day for Dayton Hamvention?
 
Greetings!

If you only have one day, what's the best day to attend the Dayton
Hamvention--especially if you are interested in boatanchors and
boatanchor-related stuff? Two years ago I went on Friday, but the fleamarket
seemed a bit thin compared to fleamarkets other years--but then, as I recall,
the weather was rather poor. Last year VE3AUI and I went on Saturday, but a lot
of people seemed to have left and gone home early by the time we arrived--late
because of a tire blowout outside of Toledo. Those who habitually attend the
whole weekend must know. Given reasonable weather, what is the best single day
to attend the Dayton Hamvention?

Thanks for reading. All thoughts on this matter much appreciated. 73.

Hard to say;
My fav. times are Fri.morning and Sun. afternoon.
Fri. morning to get the "gotta have" before someone else does and
Sun. afternoon for the good prices on the stuff they don't want to drag home.
