[SFDXA] Miami Hamfesr DX Forum & Gathering of Friends

[Esteban J. Romagni]

Well the time has come again, and The South Florida DX Association is once
more proud to be hosting the DX Forum at this year's Miami Tropical Hamboree
on February 1st.

 We are pleased to announce the Speakers for DX Forum on Saturday morning in
the Playhouse:  Al Hernandez K3VN , who has been on so many terrific
DX-Peditions its hard to name them all, will speak on the recent  ZL7C
DX-Pedition. We will hear the first presentation of that highly successful
trip. Second, we are so proud to have Dan Street K1TO, President of the
Florida Contest Group speak to us about his recent unprecedented third win
of the WRTC event in Finland. We also will give away some fantastic prizes
(*).

Back by popular demand, we will also have a "Gathering of Friends," a.k.a.
the DX
Dinner, and it will be in association with the Florida Contest Group. Dinner
will be at Casa Paco Restaurant private party room located on 8868 SW 40st,
just few blocks away from the hamfest (HAMFEST CASUAL ATTIRE, Great low
priced food too).



There will be a DX "Happy Hour" Cocktail Party in our private room at the
restaurant from 5:00 pm until 6:30 pm, and DXCC cards will be checked before
dinner starts promptly at 6:30 pm. If you attended last years feast, you
sure know that this is an event that you cannot miss.



The Cocktail Party will be a cash bar and DXCC cards will be checked during
"Happy Hour" Even if you can't stay for dinner, come to the Cocktail Party
and have an 807 (or
a 4-400A) with your friends. There will be several great door prizes given
out
during the cocktail party and through out dinner.

Tickets for the drawing are FREE and will be given out at the door to all
who attend but you must be present to win.

There is no fixed dinner menu or minimum price - order what you want from
the Cuban menu (yes, it's in English and Spanish) and you pay for your
separate check.
