Default Dayton HamFest killed by E-Bay

I've gone 5 of the past 6 years.
4 years ago there was a tent full of old AS/400 CPUs.
Less of that this year. Still, a lot of junk every year.
People wanting high-dollar for very-worn equipment.
That was disappointing.

What gets me is the guys selling bootleg MS software for big bucks.
Illegal as all get-out.
But tolerated, apparently, by HamVention.
They could get in big trouble.
That would be sad.

But it's not the only way that the WWW has changed Dayton.
It's changed the whole of communication.
Repeater/IP connections may be nifty, but they're not radio.
