I saw no other iron of any decent size at the whole event (unless you count rack cabinets and repeaters), and no modulation iron. If there were any HV chokes, I missed them too. Only a few measly 2500V high voltage capacitors and one box of BC-style coils. There were enough tubes, many kinds, but strangely not many loose solid state parts. Alot of test gear and stuff.
The overall impression of the tailgate area was excellent! many interesting items, plenty of test gear and boatanchors, alot of junk to dig through, "Bring out your dead!".. and in most cases, better deals than inside. It was hot, about 100 degrees, and the very high humidity pervaded, making it as bad in the shade. Lots of water-drinking, some gatorade or reasonable facsimile. Very interesting people and conversations, many YLs, XYLs.
