36th EASTERN VHF/UHF CONFERENCE:The
aim of the Conference is to share with our fellow VHFer's and above technical
achievements in the field of communication and experimentation. You are all
invited to participate by presenting a technical paper or submitting one for
publication in the Conference Proceedings CD. Just your attendance is also
welcome and we have a full program scheduled once again this year.
If you are interested in presenting a paper at the conference or submitting

For the technical presentations, PowerPoint presentations
are preferred, but not required. The conference will provide an
LCD projector, screen and wireless microphone for use by its
participants. If your presentation requires a different format
such as a slide projector, please contact me prior to
the conference and I will arrange for it.
A Conference Proceedings will be published on CD.
You do not need to be a speaker to have your material included
in the proceedings, just interested in sharing with your fellow
radio enthusiasts, so please send it along by MARCH 15, 2010.
In addition to our technical presentations and world famous
Bandsessions we'll have a new LAB Session with Noise Figure, Gain
and Power Measurements and a Manufacturers Demo area which will
be open Saturday afternoon. We encourage you to bring
equipment to test. We'll also have Greg Bonaguide, WA1VUG

figure and gain measurement Lab Session (0MHz-50GHz),
and Mark Casey, K1MAP to head up the Sunday morning
flea market. Art Holmes W1RZF and Michele Clement W1MKY will head the
