    First trip to Fair Radio in Lima, OH - vintage military radio heaven!

    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...

    Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot

    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...

    First trip to Fair Radio in Lima, OH - vintage military radio heaven!

    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...

    First trip to Fair Radio in Lima, OH - vintage military radio heaven!

    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.

    First trip to Fair Radio in Lima, OH - vintage military radio heaven!

    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...

    Findlay Ohio 2021 show, May14-16

    Never been here, but might have to make the trip, since it now appears MTA and Aberdeen are a bust until the fall. Have to get my OD Green fix!

    Members in Northern Virginia?

    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.

    New M561 in family

    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! :)

    New M561 in family

    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!

    M718A1 Project

    Wow, what a great transformation! Love the oddball MVs, everyone's seen a -151, but the -718 is an interesting beast.
