[OKDXA] Fw: Official attendance at Dayton Hamvention 2022 from Jim Shideler, W5JCS

[D. Boyer]

It was great to see so many people turn out after a two-year hiatus. I have 1000 positive things to say and only one negative thing:  The grass in the flea market was a foot tall in places. When you pay $70 for one flea market spot, it would be nice if someone mowed it a day or two before the event.  Other than that, it was a great experience. I saw some DXpedition friends that I hadn’t seen for almost 30 years. Can’t wait for next year 😁👍
