Oh!

So the "Lincoln Ham Festival" was the "National Hamfest" at Newark. Good job I didn't go to Lincoln looking for some kind of celebration of pork as an extra after leaving Newark lunchtime on Saturday.

No previous experience of the show so can't comment on its shrinkage or whatever, but there was enough to pass an interesting three hours or so mooching about. I bought a few NOS 6005s (mil spec 6AQ5s) and a DK96 and succumbed to the siren call of an SDR.

Did see an interesting Pamphonic PA amp on one stall (pic taken but left camera in friend's car).
