[Milsurplus] Dayton

[Ray Fantini]

Here it is the day before Dayton and as usual this is the day spent visiting the local sites. Midwest electronic c Surplus was in full operation this morning despite the fact that the city of Fairborn is in the process of tearing up the street in front of the store and in true municipal fashion there was one man working a jack hammer and five supervisors standing around watching. But in spite of the cities inconvenience several people were there buying. Later in the afternoon I traveled out to Fair Radio in Lima and it was good to see everything going well out there. Was not able to visit Fair last year but did see this year that they have added a new section right in the front of the store with a lot of new items although new is not the right word to describe things like BC-610, TCS and BC-348 receivers. There was also newer equipment like R-1051 and URC- 35 sets too. The weather in Dayton appears to be the best that I have experienced in years, no rain and tempters in the seventies. From a weather stand point this may be the best that we have had in years. People like Mr. Stark and many of the others are already set up and I noticed a crowd around his space. Will be posting more tomorrow and will see what shows up for sale.
