The Sheraton is nearly full, so act fast. This event includes trading of antique radios and related items, equipment contests, an auction and informative programs. Although this is not a hamfest per se, there are many hams in attendance and vintage amateur radio equipment, books and accessories are displayed and sold here. An equipment auction will be held Friday afternoon. Preregistrations will NOT be mailed, so an SASE is not necessary.
Flea market open all day.
The SE region AWA meet was started by Mr. Lew Elias, W4DBT in 1976 in Winston-Salem. This has grown into one the fourth largest such event in the country. If you have any interest in antique radios or radio history and are within a reasonable driving distance of Charlotte, you will certainly enjoy this event. This hamfest has a heated indoor dealer and flea market area and outside tailgating. Tables are available by preregistration on a first come first served basis.
