Over the last few years this annual convention has been an occasion where
amateurs interested in LF have met and exchanged views and shared their
knowledge on LF operating, technical and experimental matters. I am
chairing the organising committee this year, after taking a back seat last
year on account of other commitments. I intend to make the event even
better this year for those interested in LF, thus am issuing a copy of the
announcement that will appear in the March RadCom, the RSGB, CDXC and IOTA
websites, onto this list.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Papers are invited for the RSGB International HF and IOTA Convention to be
held at the Beaumont Convention Centre, Old Windsor, Berkshire over the
weekend 11th - 13th October 2002. The Convention covers DXing and technical
topics that relate to amateur bands from (and including) 50MHz to 73kHz.
This year we will be particularly interested to consider topics of interest
to the new Foundation Licence holders. If you have an interesting idea and
wish to be considered as a speaker please submit a brief abstract on the
subject matter to the Chairman of the HF Convention sub-committee via e-mail
to [email protected] or by post to RSGB HQ.

In addition to the above I would be interested to hear personal views on how
to improve the LF content of the convention. We need to retain those
already interested in this aspect of the hobby and also attract more people
to it.
Suggestions please direct to me, rather than clog up this list, to
[email protected]
