Yes, excellent traffic all day long it seemed, until the last hour or so. Had trouble seeing all the tables each time I went out for a gander.
The entire Collins receiver A-Line was represented, 75A-1 in nice shape($200 w/plug in filter adapter, sold), 75A-2 also in nice condition ($400, unsold last time I looked), 75A-3 clean, minus cabinet, filters, tubes, didn't ask the price, 75A-4 ($1000, being sold for SK's widow along with KWS-1, unsold). Saw none of the later S-Line gear, interest seems to have waned.
Along with Jeff Adams' very clean SP-600 in original cabinet there was also a SP-600 VLF model on another table for $750, unsold. Clean R-388 w/covers and repro tag, $375 unsold. Same seller had a nice Harris RF-590A for $1250 unsold.
A so-so NC-303 sold for $50, BC-348s including a rare C model sold to a list member, CV-591 SSB adapter sold across from us, numerous other items moved as there were a lot of holes on tables that had been full earlier. A lot of newer Heathkit gear seen and sold, National NC-101X(not sure if it sold or not), plenty of amps, Halli gear, and tubes galore.
Managed to move around $160 worth of small stuff including some parts from the Gates BC1-T that was disassembled in the driveway last fall. Bought two large Dakaware tuning knobs w/skirts for $8, a bank of 8 SO-239s mounted on an aluminum plate to be used for aerial grounding, a strange Altec mic for $5, and a jar of excellent salsa this little gal was selling for $8.
Saw many familiar faces including K4OZY, K4NYW, K3YA, KC4VWU, KW4HF, also met some new folks known from online lists over the years as well as seeing a few folks whose calls escape me like Vic, KW4HF's buddy.
Was a great first event/first time out since the baby's arrival. Enjoyed hanging out with W3JN & K4HX. Only three of the Four Horsemen of the [AM] Apocalypse this time as WA2PJP had a commitment that kept him away.
