Hi,

Sorry for any list duplication and repeating parts of
the last email.  It was not complete.  Just build a
new computer and apparently there are some hot keys I
need to avoid until I understand them better.

For your pleasure and edification.  Below is a list of
swapfests for the Front Range for this year.  The list
is from the EOSS website.  The "x" beside the MARC
CampFest indicates the date is tentative based on last
years date.

Date               Name              Sponsor
12-Feb-06     ARA Hamfest     Aurora Repeater Association
01-Apr-06     Larcfest     Longmont Amateur Radio Club
08-Jul-06     MegaFest     Pikes Peak Radio Amateur
Association
20-Aug-06     DRC Hamfest     Denver Radio Club
27-Aug-05x     MARC CampFest     Mountain Amateur Radio Club
17-Sep-06     Fall Hamfest     Northern Colorado Amateur
Radio Club
24-Sep-06     BARCfest     Boulder Amateur Radio Club

The Dayton Hamvention is May 19, 20 & 21.  This is the
biggest ham radio event in the world.  About 20,000
people attend each year.  If it exist in amateur radio
you will find it at the Hamvention.  Got questions or
just want to chat with the big names in amateur
radio.....then this is the place to go.  There are
about 550 big name vendors inside the Arena and about
2500 lessor exhibitors outside in the flea market
area.  Be prepared for rainy and cool weather.  Make
you hotel reservations soon.  If not made by the
middle to end of February you may have to drive 25-30
miles each way to a motel.  Tickets and more
information is available at http://www.hamvention.org/
  Again this year tickets for the entire three days is
$20.00 and bus tickets from the parking lot is $8.00.

Have a great day and see you at the swapfests and
Hamvention.

73,

Jim, AB0UK
