SATURDAY

AMSAT, MARS, The Florida Contest Group, The Florida AM Group and The Florida Repeater Council will all have meeting, all being open to any interested party.

The ARRL West Central Florida Section forum will have representatives from both the Division and Headquarters in attendance in addition to our Section Officials. Visit and meet your elected officials. Ask questions and hear the latest from Headquarters.

Meet the new Section PIC and the PIOs from all the other clubs. Anyone interested in amateur radio public information is welcome.

The D-STAR again this year we have a full 2 days of various D-STAR seminars. From Basic to SysOp we have something for anyone interested in the fastest growing segment of Amateur Radio World Wide.

Also all day will be the DXCC/WAS/ VUCC card checking. Drop off your cards and have them checked while you attend a forum, visit your favorite commercial vendor or stroll the tailgate area.

The YL forum is for all the ladies, young and old.

Intro to Digital for all those who have heard of digital modes but want to know a little more and see a demo before jumping on the bandwagon.

QSL/LoTW is just the right place to learn all about QSLing, why, how, who and anything else you can ask. Learn all about setting up and using Log Book of The World.

Geoff Haines, the Section Technical wizard and published homebrew tinker will give his Homebrew Forum, always interesting and informative.

VE Exams are available all day except two half hour breaks and the hour when ARECC exams are being given. Come on in and upgrade or bring your spouse or child in for his/her Technician license. Amateur Radio testing 2008 FCC exam fee is $14.00.

ARRL ARECC Exams will also be given in the afternoon. The ARECC exam fee is $10.00.
