Dayton was a lot of fun. Sales were good and I did find a really good
bargain. Saturday I was requested at the Youth in Amateur Radio forum. I
found three YLS whose parents were part of DARA to run the booth. They sold
most of what I had left. While at the forum I won a 2 meter Kenwood
transceiver. I took it to Kenwood to see if I could get a speech chip for
it. They said NO, but they would give me dealer cost back for it in trade
for any Kenwood radio that I wanted. So I traded that and $125.00 for a new
THF6A which I had lost on a bus a few months ago. After I got back to the
booth, the Kids stayed and sold the rest of my inventory before 4 P.M. So
Sunday I brewed Coffee and got a chance go walk around. I didn't spend any
more money, other then a couple of parts for my Super Antenna.
