K8CX at the 2024 WARA Hamfest at the Trumbull County Fair Grounds in Cortland, Ohio
August 18, 2024

I was setup selling and made around $400.00.

I purchased 5 tickets for prizes.
They pulled my ticket for 2 door prizes.
One was a $50.00 gift certificate and ham radio book.
The second door prize was a very nice portable lithium battery, 12V, 15 amp hours.
Then they pulled a third ticket for the main prize. I won a Yaesu FT-710 Field transceiver worth about $1000.00.

It looked like there were around 1000 ticket stubs in the tumbler.
What were the odds?
My wife made me go out and buy a lottery ticket. Nothing! I guess my lucky streek ended...

That was a very good day!
