Dave, Thanks for the report. I was there friday.
The TV action gets a little better each year. Its mainly an Antique Radio/Audio fanatic event but with decreasing HAM stuff. The deals on tubes cannot be understated!!

I see the same guys travel in from far east and far north every year and its a very good time. A few from OH and MD also. everyone is there for a good reason. Very well done and I would surely camp if nobody missed me back home.

That RCA 621TS looked real nice. They had it playing too.

I saw the GE Locomotive. There was a spare chassis and I ...think...he wanted only $85 for all. Does that sound right?

I was out of cash as usual, having bought a red 1954 RCA 14" metal set for $40, an RCA '38-'42 radio service manual for $20, and a Jackson battery eliminator for my AK-30, knob for a GE radio for and other cool stuff that I traded for. Now its out to the garage...just like christmas morning.

Suggestion for VK'ers; Take pictures of any sets you may want to sell/trade there and post on VK classisifed a week before (by September 6, 2013) then print pictures and take to show in case any non-VKers have interest (there's alot of them there). It really beats lugging sets there and then lugging home again, increasing chances of damage.
