If you're into homebrewing, vintage radio restoration, and/or squeezing the last bit of performance out of your rig, then make plans to attend the Wes Schum (W9DYV-SK) Radio Symposium in Slidell, Louisiana on July 19-20 (Friday/Saturday). This event is being held offsite, but in conjunction with the Ozone ARC's annual Slidell Hamfest (
www.w5sla.org).
This year's Symposium will host forums on receiver testing and optimization, rig design and restoration topics, HF amplifier construction hints/kinks, DXpedition planning, and many others. Space is limited, so act now. For information, see the ads in Electric Radio or check the Central Electronics website (

After the Symposium, be sure to visit the incredible National WW-II Museum in New Orleans on Sunday (July 21). Mention "Hamfest" and receive an admission discount to the Museum.
