Did you leave early Joe? I counted 47 vendors including the back parking
lot where I was. I saw someone loading into their car (another vendor) a
real nice looking SX-101A and HT-32 or HT-37. I got my usual stuff.
Looking forward to Boxboro next week. Also saw some nice looking Hi-Fi
stuff
I see a line is starting to form for my unbuilt Eico's. Hey guys, it was
a joke; but I have assembly manuals if you want to start from scratch.
You would not believe how much private e-mail I received on those things.
I got to scurry around the ham shack, basement, and garage for more stuff
to bring. Most of what I was going to bring to Boxboro I sold today.
