[NLRS] 14th International EME Conference

[Barry VE4MA]

I wanted to forward an abbreviated version of this notice just in case there
may be someone interested in attending that does not see the other
reflectors.  This will probably be the last time that the conference will be
this close, as it usually alternates with Europe and lately they have been
reluctant to give it back to NA
