Great show, sorry I was not able to go! Had family commitments. Thought about it and think I will have to attend next year. Just goes to show that stuff is out there and available. Thanks for posting the pictures, although you got me regretting not being there to collect up that Australian HRO (AMR-101) for $100
How do you rate the show in terms of comparison to Dayton? , know it's not near as many people but looks more centered on vintage then Dayton.
Think that maybe one of the fastest growing arias in Ham radio today are the vintage market. That and maybe the SDR people but a radio with no knobs or worse yet virtual ones just ant for me.

Not a tremendous amount of military gear, but I saw ART-13, ARC-5, ARR-7, ARR-15, RAK, RAL, RBA, RBB, RBC, RBV, RCH, BC-348, BC-342, GRR-5, R-1511, R-390A, R-388, R-389, R-392, T-195, CU-656, FRR-49, Israeli PRC-6, some other PRC-xx gear and probably other stuff I don't recall.
It was a good swapmeet for ham radio boatanchors - tons of Hammarlund, lots of Heathkit, Drake, Collins S-line - must have been a dozen Hallicrafters
SX-62 rcvrs.
Cheers,
