Kutztown DVHRCswap May 9 & 10

[DavGoodlin]

*Update* - the site no longer lets anyone in until Friday at 10am, 8am for vendors.

I will be there Friday 8am with lots of tubes for early sets, several TVs and fully expecting chaos to ensue as standholders probably won't get thru the horde as soon as expected to unload.

Kutztown is this friday and saturday sponsored by DVHRC Delaware valley Historic Radio Club

Friday May 9th was not a washout but wet and busy as usual. Nobody liked having to stay out of the area, only to have a few hours to set up before non-vendors were let in.

I brought flats of all my loose 4-5-6 pin globe and ST tubes that sold quite well, especially when I had my period-correct tester there. Of course, the 26's and 45's sold out. I had test equipment, RC sub boxes and loads of parts. Easy stuff to move in wet conditions.

I only brought back two radios, a record low. An Arvin 3586, where the accessory speaker sold before I got to it. So I got this orphaned Philco speaker for it.

An AC-battery Philco 46-350 aka Shango's "Ralph radio" was a bargain at $30, had a choice of two in the usual condition but otherwise complete

The fact this is more of an antique radio and audio equipment swap meet with repro parts vendors makes it look like a "video desert" compared to other events. Fear not!

Next event is Sept 19-20, 2025.
I plan to bring mainly TV sets and HiFi parts including a ch 3 agile modulator, which is a big help to other sellers of TV.
