What’s a Hamfest?

Hamfests are events in which Amateur Radio folks gather to talk about the hobby they love, meet manufacturers and retailers, shop for oddities and rare finds at a flea market, watch demonstrations of the latest gear, and attend educational forums. The world’s largest Hamfest is Dayton Hamvention®, but smaller, more localized events occur regularly worldwide. Click here to find Hamfests in your neck of the woods.

The free DXE Hamfest will be at the Summit Racing Equipment Retail Super Store in Tallmadge, Ohio— also the site of the DX Engineering Showroom. The event runs from 9 a.m. to Noon in the showroom. From 8 a.m. to Noon, a FREE flea market will be take place in the facility’s large paved North parking lot (no mud…just bargains). This is a family event for Amateur Radio enthusiasts.
