AmateurRadio

It was suggested on lca09_chat that radio amateurs might want to catch up for a chat.

For those staying longer there is also the local club REAST which people might like to visit.

Regular events which should be running at the time of the conference are:

• Lunchtime meetup on Wednesday afternoons
• ATV Experimenters' night on Wednesday evenings (tx starts about 1930)
• Monthly Saturday afternoon informal get-togethers (though I'm not sure what time of the month this usually is -- I'll find out. TK)
• WIA broadcast (News and other information from the Wireless Institute of Australia)
• VK7 local broadcast (News and other information from VK7). On immediately after the WIA broadcast.

So if anyone would like to visit the club, leave your name with an indication of when you'd be available to do it. There's no reason why we couldn't open up on the Saturday or Sunday before or Sunday after especially for some visitors.

It might also be possible for us to meet up at a pub/cafe for lunch or dinner during the conf if people are not able to make it to a REAST event. If we are lucky, we can get both in!

If not, just put your name and we can keep an eye out for each other during the conference. ;)

PLANNED MEETUP - Tuesday 20th for lunch. At the start of the lunch session meet at the corner of Lazenbys, just outside the door down the stairs from the registration desk.
