RSGB Convention - Will You Be There?

The RSGB Convention is being held at Kents Hill Park Conference Centre,
Milton Keynes on 13-15 October 2017. This year, two SDARC members have
been invited to speak.

Tony is presenting about his trip to Botswana and James is talking about
his M1N the Middle project. Some talks are being videoed and were not sure
if either of these will be made available for viewing at a later time.

The RSGB Convention programme has exciting lectures covering HF and
DXpeditions along with VHF and Technical ones. In addition, AMSAT will be
organising some of the lectures as the AMSAT Colloquium will be
incorporated into the RSGB Convention this year.

There is a broad mix of subjects across five streams. There will be topics
to cater for all tastes.

As usual, there will also be lots to see in the exhibition lounge with
displays from a wide number of special interest groups. Chiltern DX Club,
RSGB ARDF committee, AMSAT, UK Microwave Group and UK Six Metre Group will
all be present along with a number of others. Near the tea and coffee will
be displays from Icom, Kenwood and Yaesu so you can see their latest radio
offerings. MLS will be present selling a wide range of radios and there
will be an RSGB bookstall selling our latest publications. There will also
be DXCC card checking in the exhibition lounge so don’t forget to bring
your QSL cards if you need them validated.

It is possible to attend the Convention for just a day, either Saturday or
Sunday, or even both days.

Ticket Prices

Saturday: £15.00

Sunday: £10.00

All weekend: £20.00

Under 21 Free Day admission No tickets issued proof of age required.
(Under 16s must be accompanied)

It would be great to see some of you there giving support to Tony and James.
