\"\"<\/a>On Saturday, September 20, 2025, the Asheville Radio Museum<\/a> held its fifth annual Radio Flea Market and Open House\u2014and I attended with camera in hand.<\/p>\n

As a proud member and volunteer at the museum, it\u2019s always a treat to see the community come together around radios of every shape and size. The flea market is completely free for both attendees and vendors, and the turnout this year was fantastic. I enjoyed catching up with friends and meeting some new faces\u2014including a number of readers from both the SWLing Post and QRPer.com<\/a>!<\/p>\n

While this sale often highlights antique and vintage radios, it\u2019s by no means limited to them. You\u2019ll find modern gear mixed in as well, as you\u2019ll see in the photo gallery below.<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t take photos of the museum itself during this visit, but I plan to share a full tour in the near future. In the meantime, if you\u2019re in western North Carolina, the Asheville Radio Museum is open most Saturdays and is located on the campus of Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College.
