Hi,
I had a table on Saturday. Next May I'm going Friday as I had done in the past, this year was good, Id say.
Nice to see you there Dave A, I will catch up with you Mike, hopefully next year.
Philcophan was also in attendance. We'll have to trade something next May.

I went looking to sell mostly and source some parts for a Philco 38-7 and Zenith 8S563 Im restoring for hobby money.
Sold some NIB Finco and Jerrold UHF antennas, so I'll bring more TV antennas and lots more tubes in May.
I bought a huge lot of tubes last month and did well selling the 37 of 200 I brought, only 2.5% of whats at home
Its a good thing I made it to my table before selling the 3 flats of tubes to the looky-loos that bug you while you're trying to unload your truck.
I hadda keep repeating, "there are no 45s or 2A3s or Western Electric gems, OK?"

When the club BIN table was opened up to "take it now - please" at 2pm, I nabbed that 1956 metal 17" Bug-eye Zenith. What a cool set!
The only other treasure I brought home was an RCA 66X1 a guy from Massachusetts sold me for $5 cause the bakelite case was cracked, but all there. He marvelled at how well he did with test equipment, here so much more than other meets.
I restored an RCA 66X1 for a guy at work and it needed NO Rf alignment - dead on, a fine performer, so I wanted another.

Its great to see all the travelers come here. The guys from DVHRC run a great show! Hats off again. =)
