Friday / Saturday? For years I went on Saturday & Sunday. What happened? Most people have to work on Fridays. Is this a typo?

 

[flecom]

no not a typo

everyone complained that Sunday was dead (like it is in most hamfests) so it was dropped

It took us as a board a long time to agree on it, but we dropped sundays. Main reason being many vendors were saying it was dead and the only people that came were people doing returns. We were interviewed by HamRadioNow and one if his questions was about why no sunday. Here is a link to the interview. Ham Radio Now - Episode 52 In the future if we are as large as we were in the "Glory" days, we might add sunday as a third day. Lets hope people keep supporting us.

Guess I can't go then. I work Mon-Fri, & every other Sat, [meaning the Sat of the show] so Sunday would be the day I would attend. But I will be at Orlando. Good luck with that.

So how did the Friday/Saturday show work out for you? Lot's of attendees?
