Belton Hamfest-April 2007-GREAT!!





Well, the weather was iffy, but all it all worked out fine for the inside people....I guess the outside was miserable from about 9PM Friday till you left or came inside!!! Good action on the floor, with radios and parts leaving at a steady pace. Mixed sales between upper middle to middle priced and few low end too, though I didnt have any really inexpensive radios...Id prefer to miss a few sales and not have to sell the low end, I know the new guys cant work on em, so they could end up being quite expensive in my opinion. Fun , fun , fun, though and lots of regulars along with new and different groups from much further away than usual and we were glad to see em. Betty, W5PUP took lots of pictures and Im going to include some. If you need explanations just ask me.
Next up is Ham Com, I liked it last year but some didnt. AND, this year will tell us I guess, if its up, its in, if its not, it will be because of location and space for traders and regular guys buyin and sellin'...we will have to see! I had a good time and a good show, many of you will remember the beautiful blond lady at my tables, she's fighting a very serious battle with cancer this year. PRAY HARD for Julie. Shes a ham and a great asset to the whole world. 73 for now Murray
