Don't forget about the 2013 Utah VHF Society Swapmeet that is scheduled to start at 8 AM (7AM setup for vendors) on February 23, 2013.

The 2013 UVHFS swapmeet will be at a new location - the Davis County Fairgrounds in Building #2 see the previous entry (link) for directions on getting to this new venue.


If you've never been to the Davis County Fairgrounds - or have forgotten details, one of the key landmarks is the intersection of 1100 West and Clark Lane - which is also 100 North.  At this intersection you would go south a couple of blocks, following a white fence on your left.

One of two entrances to the main parking
lot at the Davis County fairgrounds.

At this point the north end of the Davis County Fairgrounds is one your left and as you can see in the picture above, there's a long exhibition building.

A bit past this building there is a break in the fence where you can see two entrances onto a paved parking lot:  Go into either entrance.


Once you are in the parking lot, find your way toward the south end and down there you'll see some more buildings and, hopefully, a bunch of cars with callsign license plates, strange-looking antennas and, possibly, strange-looking people hauling their valuable junque into a building!

What you are looking for is building #2 - a large, blue building with a flagpole out front and a large, white garage-type door.


When you park, please be conscious of the needs of those who require special access and of those who may be lugging in something that is particularly large and heavy, leaving enough space near the sidewalk for them to gain access.


Below, you will find a simple map showing the location of the fairgrounds and building #2 with respect to the other roads and the Davis County Sheriff's office to the east.

See you there!

The 2013 Swap Meet - how to get there

As mentioned in the previous post, the Utah VHF Society Swap Meet will happen on Saturday, February 23, 2013 in building #2 of the Legacy Events Center in Farmington - a new venue for the swap meet.

So, how does one get there?

In the coming weeks we'll be adding some pictures and more detailed descriptions of the new location, but in a nutshell here's how to get there:

For pictures and maps, look at the blog entry, The 2013 Swapmeet Location - Maps and Pictures (link)

From the south via I-15:

• Take exit #322 and stay to the right at the "Y" junction just after the exit to put you on 200 West.
• Continue North until you get to State Street at which point you should turn left.
• State street will cross over I-15 and make a "jog" to the north.  You should see the Davis County Sheriff's complex on the left.
• The road straightens out and you will soon arrive at 1100 West where you will turn left at the traffic signal to head south.
• With the fairground now coming up on your left, go past the first entrance, but go in to either the 2nd or 3rd entrance (either one will work) and head to the south end of the parking lot.
• Go into building #2 - the blue one with the white garage-type door.

From the south via Legacy Parkway:

• Take the #12/13 exit but stay to your right to avoid getting on I-15!

From the north, via U.S. Highway 89 - the "Mountain Road":
