Just an observation on the scheme of things...............  Regarding 
hamfests and their slow decline, I note that other hobbies are still 
going strong.  I was invited again to attend the TCA train meet at York 
PA in April.  They indicate they have 9 buildings open for 2 1/2 days.   
This event occurs twice yearly at the York location.  I did attend this 
event a few years ago and it was impressive.  It would give Dayton a bad 
name.........   Maybe because there are fewer, total, train collector 
events helps to keep these venues in such good shape.    There are 3-5 
shows each year in the mid-Atlantic area, I'm told.  Tell you something 
else... the money that changes hands at these train meets is truly 
impressive.
