    Hi Scott - You did well!! One of these years I gotta take that trip too. Very nice RCA bakelite radio. I'd grab that for sure. Well, after Dayton, swinging by to the Howard Co hamfest this Sunday is kinda a bust. But for the area, it's not all that bad. I will be there Sunday but I'm 50/50 whether I'll sell or not. If I just come as a buyer, I'll get there around 7:45am. Will only take about an hour to get thru the place, maybe 7 or 8 rows on the ground with tailgaters. If I don't sell, I'll be sitting with a buddy for at least another hour or two at his table, so if you come by it shouldn't be too hard to run into us. Again, glad you had a great time at Dayton! Thanks for showing us your video. See ya -- Atco

    Scott,
    Hey...I remember you. You're the guy who made me walk the flea market on Saturday and freeze my butt off in that Ohio fridge. LOL But a good time it was, huh? I really enjoyed meeting you, my friend. You're one of the good guys. I got home about an hour ago, so I'm pooped and am in need of a shower. Again, my friend...you made out like a bandit on that HQ-150. Another big congrats to ya.
    Regards,
    John

      knobs? John, you went to Dayton, drove eight hours... FOR KNOBS? And did you find knobs? Did you pay a lot for knobs? And I thought that you'd come home with that new Icom IC-7300 that is the hot seller this year. I'll have to check out your Daytona beach vid and see wassupwitdat, there better be lotsa KNOBS. Don

    Hi Scott,
    I just came over from John's channel. I really loved to go to Dayton, but I get into some real trouble there! I always run out of money before I can complete my wish list:-) I just subbed.

      Grace Nauen I looked at the video on my end, and have no audio problems. You may want to check your settings as your comment was the first I received that seem to indicate a problem. Thanks for watching, hope the rest of my videos are entertaining.

    Hi Scott, It must have been hard to decide what to buy there with so much stuff. I've never been to the Hamvention, it's a few hours south of us. I could easily spend 1k$ there. Was it super crowded? Did you attended any lectures or classes? Did you meet Bob Heil or Gordon West or any ham celebs? And did you have any good eats? Those plugs should be: Switcraft 2501F for VTVM test probe - Amphenol 80MC2M 2 pin for antenna jack. We were in Dayton in 1982, before I got my ticket. We were at Hara for another convention. One place that was fantastik was Wright Patterson AF Museum. We were there all day, very interesting. That's a must see in Dayton. Other than that, Dayton sux.

      Thanks for watching! I may have one of those plugs in my junk box, otherwise we have a few boat anchor lovers in the club that will help me. Hopefully I may even have some banana plugs in the basement as well ( if I can find them) thanks for telling me the names, it will help alot. Really had a great time walking around with John. He was looking for wooden knobs and one other thing and I was looking for a Heath kit O-11 scope to restore. May see if you want to part with yours some day. Luckily there are a couple of ham fests near me over the summer than I can check out.

      +Scott Johnston oh and I have met Gordo and Bob several times. i help out at the Ham Nation booth and they always stop by. Been to the museum before, really nice, almost went back again this year. i attended one forum on antennas, had two really good meals at a local family owned place and several at Bob Evans. It took us about 8 hours to drive there ( same for john but in the opposite direction)

    • @umajunkcollector

      Um willing to sell my Heathkit O-8 silly scope. I recapped it, and got a CRT. But it smoked, so may need resistors and other parts tested. There are a few original HV caps in there too. My eyesight made it hard to solder too. I have about 50+$ into it. I may horsetrade instead, we each pay the mailman. Think about what you might like to trade me for it? Don

      Grace Nauen I am hoping to get a camera with a external microphone soon. That being said, the audio levels are pretty high. Hope to do better in the future.
