Now, almost evenly divided between campers, parkers and sellers.  MFJ is the biggest commercial vendor, and always a favorite, Tower Electronics with their tables of connectors adapters and all those things you need to stock up on until the next time.  Noticeably absent this year, Elecraft and Flex, which really didn't sell anything there, they just took orders.
