[w0zq at aol.com]

Hello NLRS land

I want to make sure that everyone in NLRS-land is aware of two very outstanding VHF/UHF/uW conferences that are coming up.   The first opportunity is the Central States VHF Society Conference to be held in St. Louis, MO, on July 22-24.  St. Louis is an easy drive from NLRS land and the conference has worked out a reduced hotel rate for conference members.   Full information, including both hotel and conference registration, can be found at http://www.csvhfs.org/conference/index.html .  If you have never been to a VHF conference, THIS is THE ONE to attend.   

The second opportunity is the 14th International EME Conference to be held in Dallas, Texas, on August 12 - 14.   As an international conference, it attracts EMEers from all over the world.  In addition, this conference is about as close as its going to get to us for some time, so if you have an interest in attending, this is THE opportunity to do so.   Their conference website is at http://www.ntms.org/eme/  - here is a short cut & paste from that - "It is with great pleasure that W5LUA, VE4MA, WA8RJF and the North Texas Microwave Society officially announce the 14th International EME Conference. We cordially invite you and your family to Dallas, Texas on the 12th,13th and 14th of August 2010 for the premier technical and social EME event of the year. Whether you are an experienced EMEer or new to EME, the conference will offer a wide range of technical, social and site-seeing activities for everyone. "  Even if you do not play EME, check out their outstanding website for some very interesting reading.
