[Milsurplus] Military Gear At Memphis, TN, "Dixiefest"

[Mike Morrow]

Today is the final day of the Memphis hamfest.

Yesterday there wasn't much tempting in military gear at the flea market.  All I bought was an ASB test meter (60ABJ).

I saw one fellow's table with a nice RAO (but at $475, and re-capped, so therefore no longer unmodified), and an overpriced R-390A ($800).  I saw the same fellow talk an older woman down from $300 to $250 for another R-390A, then put it on his table for $550!!!  Some folks have no sense of shame.

I also saw an original RT-19/ARC-4, WITH MT-100/ARC-4 MOUNT, for $70.  That would have been a very good buy, but I already had a complete AN/ARC-4.

That was about it.
