If you want to go to Dayton, but don't want the hassle of finding accommodations and the long drive, here's an easier way to spend a day at the convention, on the Ann Arbour MI club's bus trip.
The downside is driving to Ann Arbour the day before and staying the night in a hotel, as the bus leaves at 04:30. But you get a fun bus ride to/from the convention grounds with a great bunch of hams who've done this for years. Price is $70 (US of course).
I did this trip in 2018 and it was a blast.
