Dayton Hamfest (Hamvention) 2017 - Xenia, Ohio

K4OZY and K4NYW return to Dayton! We started off Wednesday with our traditional breakfast at the Waffle House on Needmore Road in Dayton. They won't be as busy now that the hamfest has moved from Hara Arena to the fairgrounds in Xenia. Nevertheless they had Hamvention - Waffle House tee shirts available as in years past. Janice and Carmen are part of the friendly and cheerful crew at the Waffle House.
On to Fair Radio - to see what we have missed in past visits, what's new and to meet up with friends who also make the annual trek to Fair Radio.	ARC-21 IF/AF strip		SB-3189A patch panels
A pallet of boxes and crates marked July 1957 "Receiver, Radio" Unused TCS receivers! 60 years in the box.
Some of the stuff in the main Fair Radio showroom - See here for many photos of the warehouse, other buildings, outside, etc.





Then an afternoon visit to the Air Force Museum in Dayton - a really great place to visit. Radio gear inside FDR's "Sacred Cow"

B-2 and SR-71A - like two pieces of alien technology			These two always look like they are from 50 years in the future...
