just an FYI.
 

4-27-08. Western PA. first local Hamfest this area. Two Rivers Club.

6-1-08. Breezeshotters Club. Butler farm show area.

Both of these can be found on the web and the ARRL website.

W.PA. has about 5 or 6 fest each year. when home, i like

to visit and support these clubs. great place to find those

hard to find parts. and some times a good buy on receivers.

2 years ago i got an almost new in the box sat-500 for $90.

and in my little corner of the world i also travel to Ohio

for some great fest. but, i don't go to Dayton any more.

you might check the ARRL web site for a fest in your area.

just an FYI, and fest season is starting...

GOOD DX!
