anyone going to the hamfest in Dayton area this spring?

so ive been trying to figure out if its worth the drive this year, last time i went i picked up a pretty decent HF rig for cheap but also spent way too much on random junk i didnt need lol. my buddy says the flea market tables have been getting smaller every year which is kind of a bummer. anyway if anyones planning to go and wants to maybe carpool from the columbus area let me know, gas isnt cheap and id rather split it with someone who actually wants to dig through tables of old coax and mystery connectors for 3 hours

yeah the vendor floor has definitely shrunk but honestly the tailgate stuff is still worth it if you get there early, like right when it opens. last year i snagged a barely used tuner for 40 bucks from some old timer who just wanted it gone. the afternoon is mostly picked over. our club usually does a caravan up from Chillicothe if thats any closer to you, we got maybe 5 or 6 guys going this time.

im thinking about going but honestly not sure what im even looking for yet, just started getting into HF so maybe ill find something useful? dont really know what a fair price looks like for used gear tbh
