Ham Radio Presence at IEEE Convention

[From Phil Temples, K9HI]

The IEEE is holding an antenna conference in Boston in the Seaport District in July. They’ve approached Tom Walsh, K1TW, the Eastern MA Section Manager to see if we would staff a booth and provide VE exams for conference attendees interested in ham radio.  Parking fees would be waived, and they would hold a free reception for the ham volunteers.

“The 2018 IEEE APS Symposium on Antennas and Propagation and USNC-URSI Radio Science Meeting will be held on July 8–13, 2018, at the Westin Waterfront hotel in Boston, MA. The combined symposium and meeting are cosponsored by the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (APS) and the U.S. National …” The conference URL is: https://www.2018apsursi.org.
