It's back to Charlotte, NC for the 2009 Southeastern VHF Society's
annual conference to be held on April 24th and 25th!
The SVHFS Conference has grown from a small regional event into an
international event attracting Hams from around the world.
A highlight of the conference will be the annual award for design achievement
with major _/CASH/_ prizes and the /Design Achievement Award/!
The facilities committee has done a great job of securing a locations
that is very convenient for both ground and air travelers.
The event will be held at the Hilton Doubletree Hotel near the airport.
The Doubletree has FREE airport shuttle vans to and from the airport.
Special group rates are $89 per night so make your reservations now.

There will be plenty of non ham activities scheduled for those not
interested in the technical programs.

begin on Monday April the 27th.

/What I have enjoyed most about attending these conferences is meeting
in person people you have got to know so well over the radio and via
mail groups. Below is a link to some photos of the 2008 conference held
in Orlando. Most of you will see faces and calls that you know but have
never met in person. Come see us this coming April!
