Don & Steve,
I too started my ham life in Massillon, over 40 years ago. I remember when
the auction was in the basement of fire house #2.
Perry (W8AU), the auctioneer, is a ham's ham and we still see each other
from time to time. He built a whole "bump out" on the back of his house for
his ham shack.
Anyway, Don thanks for the report! Sounds like I should make it back for
one of these auctions.
Ed, W9EJB (formerly WA8PXP)

Hey Don, I can beat you - I drove all the way from Madison, Wisconsin to
the
Massillon hamfest. I got started in ham radio 30 years ago in that town,
and
have always enjoyed that hamfest. This time I was driving my mom back to
her
house, so it was just coincidence that I was there yesterday.
My old friends and I especially enjoyed the auction this time. For those
that were there I was "the guy in the blue shirt" that was periodically
causing
trouble by waving a rubber monkey to bid.
Steve, WD8DAS
