Next Saturday, August 6, is the annual Broad Ripple Hamfest. The
event is
being hosted again by Joe and Betty Lobraico on the lot adjacent to
their
home at 7373 Westfield Blvd, Indianapolis, 46240. There is no
admission fee
or any fee for selling items. This is a "tailgate hamfest" with spots
being available on a first come, first served basis. Typically, set up
starts early, around 6 or so. There will be a cookout around 11:00, and
probably some coffee and donuts available early.
This is always a great opportunity to swap gear (and/or stories) and
meet up
with friends you may have spoken with on the radio but never had a
"face to
face" with. Also, if you have some gear that has been collecting
dust in
your shack, this is the time to try to sell it, so it can collect
dust in
someone else's shack!
