so the Tri-County hamfest is coming up on the 14th and im trying to figure out if its worth the drive. last year i went and honestly the swap meet tables were kinda thin but i did snag a decent SWR meter for like 8 bucks so cant complain too much. curious if anyone elses club is setting up a table this time around, our club is debating it but we'd need like 4 people willing to haul stuff and nobody wants to commit yet lol

we went last year too and yeah the turnout was a little disappointing compared to like 2019. but i heard the club thats organizing it this time actually did some extra promotion so maybe itll be better. our club isnt doing a table but a few of us are going just to walk around. the flea market usually picks up around 9am in my experience, if you show up right at opening you can get first crack at the good stuff before the dealers cherry pick everything

this'll be my first hamfest actually, been licensed since january and havent made it to one yet. is it weird to go by yourself or do most people come with their club group
