[CQ-Contest] Dayton Forum Rooms for DX/Contesting

[Jeff Maass]

Absent any plausible explanation for this scheduling
stupidity from the New Regime at the Hamvention, my
bet is that they didn't want to rent all the chairs.

They seem a cheap bunch. Did someone say that they 
discontinued the shuttle service to the downtown hotels
a couple of years ago?
