so i've been hearing some buzz about the Tri-County hamfest coming up in like 3 weeks and wondering if anyone from this group is planning to go. Last year i picked up a decent MFJ tuner for like 20 bucks and a bunch of coax connectors so im definitely going back. also heard they might have a bigger tailgate section this time around which would be great cause that's honestly the best part anyway

if anyone wants to carpool from the north side of town let me know, i usually get there pretty early to beat the crowds before all the good stuff gets picked up

yeah im planning on it, went last year too and it was decent size for a regional fest. Dont expect Dayton or anything but the tailgate crowd is usually pretty solid. I always bring a box of random stuff i keep meaning to get rid of so maybe ill see you there lol. what time you usually show up?

oh man i didnt even know about this one. is there a website or anything? im still pretty new to all this and havent been to a hamfest yet, my elmer keeps telling me i need to go just to see whats out there. mostly curious if there's usually any HF gear or if it's mostly VHF/handheld stuff at the smaller ones
