[amsat-bb] AMSAT at ARRL Nevada State Convention, 29 April-1 May 2016

[Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)]

Hi!

On Friday (29 April) afternoon through midday Sunday (1 May), I will be
part of the AMSAT presence at the ARRL Nevada State Convention in Las
Vegas. The convention will take place at the Eastside Cannery Casino-Hotel
in Las Vegas. This hotel is located along Boulder Highway at Harmon Avenue,
north of Tropicana Avenue and east of the I-515 freeway in Las Vegas. More
information about the convention is available at:

During the convention, I will have WD9EWK on the air for demonstrations of
satellite operating. If you hear WD9EWK on, please call and be a part of
the demonstrations. I will try to post details of the planned satellite
demonstrations here on the AMSAT-BB list, and will also post that
information and other news from the convention on my @WD9EWK Twitter feed.
If you don't use Twitter, you can still see what I post there by visiting

The convention site is in grid DM26lc.

AMSAT thanks Frank Kostelac N7ZEV, a long-time AMSAT Area Coordinator in
southern Nevada, for leading the AMSAT presence at this event. I am happy
to be working with/for him this weekend, and looking forward to spending
more than one night in Las Vegas this weekend. :-) (I have only spent one
night at a time in Las Vegas on other trips over the past several years)

73!
