Yep, definitely. Just a heads up there's also a great electronics surplus place in Manchester, NH. Take care, soup On 7/13/2013 13:10, killaken2000 . wrote: > Thanks for reminding me.

Thanks. Either way I would like to check it out at least once and see what it's all about.

Thanks for reminding me. I have been wanting to go for a while. I'm interested in old/used/surplus electronics testing equipment (Oscilloscopes, Freq Counters, etc) do they sometimes have that there? take care, Rich

It's fun, I've only been once, maybe twice. But being out here, it's a haul... and make sure you bring cash as well.

It's not the sprawling bazaar it once was but if the weather's good, it's definitely worth checking out. Ham radio and computer gear, (primarily electronic) musical instruments and rack stuff, surplus, some new stuff. I like it for random bits and bobs that might not make sense to buy mail order after shipping, or used stuff I don't yet know I want, knobs, enclosures, etc. I don't like the, now, horrific parking situation and new higher rates for both buyers and sellers. Make sure you print out the flyer to save a buck. I'm not sure how much longer I'll keep going at six damn bucks, especially with gas where it is but I've been going since the 90s and inertia. You gotta go at least once. take care, soup On 7/13/2013 09:59, The Hammer wrote: > I am thinking of checking out the MIT Flea Market to be held on July 21 > http://www.mitflea.com/ > I've never been.
