The TUSCO Amateur Radio Club 2023 Show

This was the first time I’ve attended this show. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it turned out to be pretty good for being such a small show. I spent about an hour and a half wandering the two halls, looking at thing and re-checking them to make sure they didn’t want to come home with me. I left several things behind but brought home several more.

This show was at the Tuscarawas County Fairgrounds, and occupied one of the commercial buildings. There was mention of a “trunkfest,” so I suspect that there may have been some outside stuff had it not been a rainy day. Overall, however, it was a good way to spend a Saturday morning. I’ll probably go next year, time permitting, since it’s so close.
