    SD> There's several hamfests in Tennessee: one is about 40 minutes from   
    SD> here in Greeneville and two are within an easy two hour drive:   
    SD> Knoxville and Sevierville.  Chattanooga is about three hours.  The   
    SD> Shelby, NC hamfest is about a two and a half hour drive southeast of me   
    SD> and the other ones are west and southwest of me respectively.  All   
    SD> three are worth the time and effort.  Having a power scooter will come   
    SD> in very handy for hamfests.   
      
     I think the Sevierville one is coming up soon. I want to say they used   
   to do that one at the Ten-Tec facility. Are they still even in business??   
      
    SD> That's what killed off our main local hamfest.  The main organizer died   
    SD> and no one wanted to do his work.   
      
     Everyone wants the glory and benefits, but no wants the gall and the   
   work. It's like you have plenty of folks to checkin to nets...but DON'T   
   YOU DARE ask them to be Net Control, a club officer, a hamfest worker,   
   etc. Or they think that these events "just magically happen by themselves".   
   I guess they've been sniffing the oil from a dummy load too long. :P
