> Ham-Com 2002  http://www.hamcom.org 
> June 7 - 8 is NEXT weekend. 
>
> As usual we have a fabulous speaker lineup, assorted QRP 
> doorprizes, and four tables at one of the largest flea 
> markets this side of Dayton (and ours is not only huge but
> air conditioned and rain proof! ) We hope you will join us :)
>
> SATURDAY SPEAKER LINEUP:
> ROOM 9-10
>
> Session 1 -- 9am
>
> Title:  Practical Antenna Theory and Design
> Presenter:  Rick Hiller, W5RH
>
> Abstract:
> A review of the many aspects of basic antenna theory, like 
> resonance, feed impedance, standing  waves, etc. and continuing
> with practical applications of this basic knowledge during the
> concept and design phases of the 'antenna farming' process. 
> A detailed look at full wave loops will finish out the session.
>
> Session 2 - 10am
>
> Title:  What Can You Do With A 10-Meter Pole
> Presenter:  Ed Manuel, N5EM
>
> Abstract:
> A discussion of different, practical antennas based on 
> the use of the DK9SQ and MFJ 10-Meter telescoping pole.
> Antennas are discussed for all amateur bands from 160 
> meters to 70 cm.  Emphasis is given on achieving good 
> DX performance in a portable environment.
>
> Session 3 - 1:30pm
>
> Title : Getting Started In Antenna Modeling
> Presenter:  Ron Sparks, AG5RS
>
> Abstract :
> The personal computer revolution and the stealth aircraft
> program combined in the 1990's to bring incredible power 
> to the average Ham. Now when it is miserable outside, we 
> can sit comfortably inside and create antennas limited only
> by our imagination.
>
> But with this power comes the confusion of how to start. 
> Which software packages best meet your needs and budget? 
> What do you do with them when they arrive? How can you tell 
> a real answer from a bogus one? Why is building the antenna
> is different from modeling it?
>
> This talk will strive to answer all of these questions by 
> using real example antennas and typical software.
>
> Session 4 - 2:30pm
> Title : QRP Open Forum
> Presenter:  Joe Spencer, KK5NA and 'Doc' Drake W5TB
>
> An informal question and answer session for discussion of 
> anything relating to QRP construction and operating. Come 
> have all your questions answered, and all your answers 
> questioned!
