BRATS hamfest...

Well, I got up at 5am to go to this. Got there
at 6 when the gates opened. Attendance was light,
probably due to the impending rain. There was no
rain at 6 and there were about 30 tailgaters. Not
much of vintage interest, some Sun boxes here and
there, a few old Macs and one guy with a couple of
Atari boxes.

Got what I thought was a good deal, 4 2Gig wide SCSI
drives for $3 each. Unfortunately, now that I've got
them home, I see that they are HVD. Does anyone have
a PCI HVD SCSI controller that they might part with
for a reasonable fee?

Anyway, the rains came at about 7:15, some tarps and
tents popped up, but a lot of guys just packed up at
that point. Peeked inside the indoor space, which
was to open at 8, looked like a run of the mill clone
show with some radio vendors thrown in... so I called
it a day. Oh well...
