Central States VHF Society Annual Conference

[Lance Collister, W7GJ]

Hello!

As you probably are aware, the CSVHFS has its annual conference over the last weekend
of July, as it has done for over 50 years.  IF it were to be held here in Missoula in
2019 or a subsequent year, would any PNWVHFS members be willing to help out?  Any
idea how many might be interested in coming over to attend and/or make presentatons?

Just fishing at this point, because there has been interest expressed by the CSVHFS
board in this possibility.  However, as you may be aware, we VHF, UHF and microwave
types are pretty rare over here in the northern Rocky Mountains...

TNX and VY 73, Lance

Lance:

Count me in!  I come with experience, having been CSVHFS President in
2004 and running the very successful Mississauga, ON conference that
year!  Hey - we didn't INVENT the hospitality suite, but we perfected it!

I haven't been to one since 2009, but really miss them.

Lance,

I would consider attending. We would fly down
from AK as 2019 we plan to keep RV in AK that
summer. I could do a presentation (I hope to be
building for 10-GHz eme summer of 2019 - will be
my final eme band). Or could share the building
of a 600w 1296 sspa (currently in process).

We will attend CSVHF in Wichita, KS this year
with presentation of building 2x array for 6m-eme
(scheduled to be raised in June).

I'd be happy to come to Missoula to help out, or to do web stuff in advance. I do the contest website for PNWVHFS at n6kw.net

I’d love to come to Missoula for a VHF Conference. For me, it’s a one-day drive from my home in Seattle (about 500 miles and 8 hours). 

Just guessing, but if even half of our usual PNWVHFS conference crowd made the trip you’d have 40+ hams from the PNW. 

I can help with web stuff, or set up online registration, or arrange a group order of badges. I do the pnwvhfs.org website.

Hello to everyone....I am currently incarcerated in "The Home" due to a
hip replacement surgery that did not go too well. Actually, the surgery
was fine, it was the rehab that went bad. OH WELL....

I do believe that I will be able to escape for the CSVHFS gathering in
Wichita. I missed the SEVHF meeting this year for the first time in a lot
of years. I certainly should be OK for the PNW conference.

Lance: I don't know what I could do to help, but I am sure you will think
of something..HI. I can try to help, even from "long distance".
