Photos from the 2021 NorthEast HamXposition show!

Here are some pictures I took at the NorthEast HamXposition show in Marlborough, MA on September 11, 2021. This show was formerly held in Boxborough, but they decided to move it; it was intended to first be held at this location last year, but the pandemic caused them to hold it 'virtually' instead. They were able to hold it this year, though mask restrictions were still in place indoors. For those who care, I took these photos with a Nikon D60 DSLR camera. Anyway, enjoy!

Some views of the parking lot when I got there:



A nice Corvette spotted outside the hotel.


A view of the first aisle, around 9AM.


A vendor's vintage Land Rover, commonly seen at local shows.

The outside vendors. Some of these photos were taken out-of-sequence, but I've tried to slot them generally in where they were placed within the aisles. Anyway, here they are:

Yes, I bought that Atari.


Lawn darts! Don't tell the CPSC...






A PRC-77 military transceiver.
