March 27, 2004. The Timonium hamfest, held at the Maryland State Fairgrounds, was another excellent way to update the parts box. It rained from opening until about 10 AM; however, the fest had three large buildings in which to browse so there was no problem. The rain was actually a plus in that when the tarps came off at the tailgating area, the 10 AM crowd became the early birds which are usually on board at 6 AM. The highlight of the day of course was the Post Timonium Party hosted by Frank KB3AHE and his wife Carol (now KB3OMT). The food was terrific and the large crowd of AM'ers had a very enjoyable time.
