Hamvention is just weeks away at the Greene County Fairgrounds in Xenia, OH
May 17-19, 2024! AMSAT will have our usual robust presence and after-hours
activities.
*Volunteer at the AMSAT Booth - (Building 1, 1007-1010 & 1107-1110)*
AMSAT is actively seeking volunteers to assist with booth activities and
invites enthusiasts to dedicate their time. Last year, around 20
volunteers played
crucial roles in fostering meaningful interactions with attendees.
Volunteers, whether able to commit a few hours or the entire weekend, are
warmly encouraged to participate.
Aligned with this year's theme of "Expanding our Community," AMSAT aims to
strengthen its presence by recruiting new members and volunteers. For those
eager to be part of AMSAT's presence at Dayton Hamvention or request more
information about volunteering, Phil Smith, W1EME, AMSAT Hamvention Team
Leader, serves as the point of contact. To volunteer or inquire further,
individuals can reach out to Phil via email at w1eme [at] amsat.org. Your
involvement not only enriches the event but also contributes to the vibrant
amateur radio community.
*AMSAT Forum - Saturday, May 18th *
The AMSAT Forum will take place in Forum Room 2 at 1:20pm - 2:50pm on
Saturday, May 18th. This will immediately follow the ARISS Forum in the
same room at 12:10pm, so get there early and see both presentations!

Eatery on Thursday, May 16th from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM EDT. There is no
