Went back to Fair Radio on Monday - beautiful summer day in Ohio, passed hundreds of miles of corn fields on the way there. Great day for picking around in the back room. Saved a handful of things there, a few metal cases/project boxes, a AT-784 loop antenna set, a box load of MX-2799 antenna...
I went to every one of them from fall 1996 through spring 2003, haven't been back since (not that I didn't want to, just life got in the way). My schedule this fall is so busy with work-related things and other shows I know for a fact I can't make it. Sad to hear it will be the last one, but...
Are those road grader tires? I didn't know anyone made road-legal tires in 14.00x24 anymore. I know for a fact noone makes NDTs or NDCCs in that size...
Got it on the calendar, Cabell. Planning to come this time around, will be submitting my forms and payment in the next few weeks.
Looking forward to it!
Thanks for those catalog pics, papakb! I have one of the older catalogs as well, I think from the early 1970s, flipping through it makes me drool what with all the WWII gear in it, most of which was in nice used shape or even new in box! Not much of that stuff left anywhere, and certainly not...
Mike, I will probably be making another run out there in about 4 months or so, if you want me to pick something up for you to save shipping costs, I can bring it back to the East Coast for you. I figure I'll be seeing you at Graves on Labor Day weekend, so that's an option.
I went out to New Castle, PA, to visit a friend of mine last week, had an extra day so we decided to make a day trip out to west Ohio and visit Fair Radio Sales. He had visited them a couple decades ago at their old place, I had never been to Fair Radio at either location, so this was a treat...
Must've missed this thread - I'm in Front Royal, been here for 16 years. Before that 1 year in Winchester, 6 years in Culpeper and 5 years in Blacksburg/Christiansburg.
Still MV-less for several years, but able to help anyone out if they need assistance.
Probably floatation, but I heard the heaters on the Gama Goats have two settings - "off" and "turn me over I'm done on this side", so maybe it is insulation! :)
Yeah, rip all that old insulation out and put new in. The moisture won't ever go away completely once it's gotten soaked.
You're making great progress!
Welcome from Front Royal, home of the scenic start of Skyline Drive! It's an addiction, and we won't crucify you over modding your trailer. They are meant to be used and enjoyed...
