[PPRAANet] HamCon is this weekend!

[Dan Scott]

Hello Friends,

We hope you are enjoyed the Memorial Day weekend and took time to 
remember those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom. I must 
admit to knowing only a handful of their names, but I am grateful beyond 
words for each and every one of them.


      *Memorial Day also opened _Amateur Radio Week_, May 25-31, 2009
      across much of the ARRL Rocky Mountain Division. Amateur Radio
      Week recognizes the vital and relevant role of our division’s
      amateurs as officially proclaimed by Governor Bill Ritter of
      Colorado, New Mexico’s Governor Bill Richardson, and Wyoming
      Governor Dave Freudenthal. Governor Jon Huntsman of Utah has also
      expressed his strong support. *

The culmination of Amateur Radio Week is the ARRL Rocky Mountain 
Division Convention, HamCon Colorado 2009, to be held this weekend, May 
29-31, 2009 in Estes Park, CO. This premier event features prominent and 
engaging speakers, technical sessions and forums too numerous to mention 
here, well-known manufacturers and stores, thousands of dollars in 
prizes, a massive W1AW/0 operation, a silent auction, a nationally 
recognized Storm Chaser, a QLF contest, a CW pileup contest, a 
transmitter fox hunt, card checking, a VE session, an ARRL Wouff-Hong 
ceremony, and much, much more.

Although on-line and mail-in reservations are now closed, we have an 
endless supply of walk-in tickets available, though our luncheon, 
banquet and breakfast are now sold out.

Don’t miss this stellar conference! Meet new friends, reconnect with 
current ones, get re-energized and learn more about our important (and 
fun!) Amateur Radio craft. Take a look at http://www.HamConColorado.org

See you in Estes Park!
