I'd guess a couple of dozen people with direct interest.
It's not a very cohesive group in this area. 'Til now, they've
set up in a veterans' hall, but it'll be interesting to see how
things go in the flea market, where a lot of other people
come on the weekends.
There's a regular monthly gathering of guys interested in
tube circuits at a local Tim's, but fewer than half of us in
that group are into old radios... most build guitar amps and
stuff. Interesting to watch the Tim's customers when one or
two of the guys bring in their latest amp project chassis, or
a guitar they're rebuilding.
