[ADXA] Hara Arena closes its doors

[hamop1]

My first trip to Hara Arena was in 1960 with W5FUW from Stuttgart, and boy 
do I remember the Biltmore Hotel years later with 5 floors of hospitality 
rooms, from N Jersey to Ohio DX club etc. Roam from one to the other til 
about midnight and then to bed til 6 AM and then to Hara by 8AM for the flea 
market and beginnings of DX forums from 10 AM til 4PM each day. At one point 
I went to 13 straight DX conventions there, from about 1970 til mid 80s. 
After that, every 4-5 years was enough... Hate to see the molded place bit 
the dust. Fond memories for sure and a lot of lying and behind the scenes 
stuff that can not be mentioned, even now 40 years later! hi

And don't forget the mold!  No more respiratory ailments the week after!
