Southeastern VHF Society Conference
From the Southeastern VHF Society:
The Southeastern VHF Society will hold it’s 2025 Annual Conference on Friday April 4th through Saturday April 5th at the Quality Inn in Clarksville, Tennessee. Clarksville is located about 45 miles north of Nashville TN, which is the hub for Country Music and Entertainment.
Below is a preliminary schedule of speakers and presentations for the Southeastern VHF Society Conference. Our own Paul K4PEW is one of the presenters. The conference will be held at the Quality Inn at Exit #4 in Clarksville, TN April 4-5, 2025. This is an opportunity to meet other VHF+ enthusiasts, learn, exchange ideas, and have FUN.
The $69 registration fee for the conference is required, and it includes a 1 year membership in the SVHFS.
Details are here: https://svhfs.org/wp/2025-conference/.
Advance registration is highly recommended as the hotel requires a head count in order to prepare the food for the event. There will be door prizes given away at the banquet on Saturday evening. Feel free to contact me via email if you have any questions: RobinK4IDC@gmail.com.
