Speaking of Ham Fests I have been going to the one in Miami every year for the last 28 years. About 3 or 4 years ago they had one huge room just for swap tables, between 900 and 1,000. In the other large buildings they had the manufactures area and displays. Last 4 years it has gotten smaller and smaller. This year it was all in one building and other than stocking up on ni-cads and Li-on aaa, aa, c, d and and even real 9 volt batteries that put out 9.6 volts at 250 Ma. I saw some evereadys on blister cards and if you read the small print it says for 9 volt applications, actual output is 7.2 volts at 13 Ma. Anyway unless we get a large increase attendance I am afraid The Miami Tropical Hamboree and computer show may just dissappear.
