Everyone is invited. ARPS, awards, eyeball QSOs, pizza party - it'll all be 
part of the annual Ohio Section Conference, Saturday, September 14. Begins 
at 9 a.m.

Join your friends at the Ohio Emergency Management Agency, 2855 West 
Dublin-Granville Road or Ohio 161 in Northwest Columbus. The biggest reason 
is the Ohio Section's social event of the year - the lunch pizza party.

The annual Conference this year will also feature Official Observer 
Coordinator Alan Cook, N7CEU, with a complete demonstration of Amateur 
Radio Positioning System mode (titled "ARPS For Dummies" because it will 
start with simple descriptions). Winners of the 11th Annual Newsletter 
Awards contest will be announced along with the Al Severson, AB8P, Memorial 
Award winner.

The full agenda and a map to the conference are included in the latest 
issue of the Ohio Section Journal, or is available to anyone who sends an 
E-mail to Section Manager Joe Phillips, K8QOE, requesting one. That is 
at  k8qoe@arrl.org>.

Quick reminder that the ARES conference, originally scheduled for Saturday, 
August 24, has been canceled due to the major surgery of the Section 
Emergency Coordinator, Larry Rain, WD8IHP. Mr. Rain is recovering well and 
plans to participate at the Ohio Section Conference. Your participation is 
not only welcomed but encouraged.
