Yep. I know, I ask every year.




Anyone going? Me, I can't make

Been to Dayton just once,around 1998...Took a Grehound bus...Very l-o-o-o-ng
ride...Met lots of interesting characters- including a very pleasant lady from "Nuts and Volts" magazine. It was very educational from every perspective.


it. Health. Hope, next year.




I will be going to the locals.




Always support your local clubs.

It would be trivially easy for me to go, since I'm in Columbus this


week. But I looked through a couple of the Dayton threads on QRZ.com and


now find myself wondering why anyone ever goes. It looks and sounds like


the opposite of fun.




Because there's too much to see, or because you think there isn't enough?



The closest I got to Dayton was Rochester NY, and that was pretty big

forty years ago. Local ones can be fun, but they can also be limited,

since only locals attend. A regional one, like Dayton (or is that more

like a "national hamfest"?) brings in so many that it just increases

attendance. You may not get to everything, but if you were looking for

something exotic, it's more likely to be there.
