The Southeastern VHF Society (SVHFS[1]), North East Weak Signal Group (NEWS[2])
and Mount Airy VHF Radio Club (Pack Rats[3]) are cosponsoring a VHF Super
Conference[4], hosted by the Grid Pirates Contest Group (K8GP) and Directive
Systems and Engineering. The conference will take place April 15-17 in
Sterling, Virginia.
Early registration[5] discounts are available. Conference Proceedings in
printed and digital form will be available after the event. Sign up when
registering. All registrations include lunch and all-day beverages.
The event will feature an array of forums and workshops, a test lab, and a
conference banquet. A microwave loop Yagi workshop will be offered during the
weekend at an additional fee. The workshop will explain how loop Yagis work,
how to adjust them, and how to build one. Free shuttle service will be
available to the Udvar-Hazy Air & Space Museum[6].
A second call for papers and presentations for the VHF Super Conference has
been issued. The conference sponsors are seeking presentations or papers
dealing with all aspects of VHF, UHF, microwave, and higher. Topics may include
operating, contesting, homebrewing, software, EME, surplus, antennas, test
equipment, amplifiers, and SDR. Photos are encouraged.
Steve Kostro, N2CEI, and Paul Wade, W1GHZ, are coordinating Proceedings. Direct
submissions and questions[7] to them via e-mail.
