Now it's Dayton FDIM period and all world QRPers are gathering there. Though the scale is smaller, in Yokohama area, more than 100 vehicle gathered and a swap meet was held by a local amateur radio club. Under the sunny sky, radio nuts spent their pleasant time with their topics. Price of rig and parts are reasonable, quite cheaper than in net auction. In some case, sellers are asked to clear up his precious junk by his wife. He explains his situation and everybody buy from him at minimum price with maximum sympathy. I saw mobile and handy transceivers of 20yrs old are from 2,000JPY. HF transceivers need some overhaul are from 10,000JPY.
