Our third and next QSO Today Virtual Ham Expo is scheduled Live from August 14-15, 2021 and then on-demand for 30 days. We promise a flawless, great learning experience for those seeking to improve their knowledge and to be exposed to new ideas, equipment, and practical techniques – all done in a highly engaging format on the vFairs platform that we used in our first August 2020 Expo. No need to travel – participate from your home or office! Information can be found at https://www.qsotodayhamexpo.com. Here are 5 reasons why you must attend:
- Listen, engage with 80+ internationally recognized ham radio luminaries. Our speakers are experts with deep knowledge of their presentations. Most importantly, they’ve worked hard to make sure that you’ll understand their material and can apply it immediately to your projects.
- So, so many different topics – everybody will find something of high value. There’s content for everyone whether you are a newly licensed ham looking for next steps to using that license or a 30+ year experienced ham looking for new projects. Topics include (sample list): Emergency Services; Antennas; HF operation; contesting; DXpeditions; Ham radio on a budget; Satellite communication; VHF and above; Digital Modes; QRP; Homebrewing; Field, Mobile and portable operation; Software Defined Radio; Test equipment and repair; and Youth Presentations!
- Watch as many presentations as you want! A big limitation of in-person events is that you can’t watch many of the presentations (you can only be in one room at a time). At the Expo, return anytime within 30 days to listen to any Live speakers you missed as well as explore exhibitor offerings. At our last Expo, our 7,500 attendees downloaded 100,000 presentations.
- Take advantage of our calendar technology to efficiently organize your time. You’ll be able to download speaker times in your local time zone directly to your Google or Outlook calendar. You’ll then have a complete schedule of sessions to join to maximize your time during the Live period with speakers that are the most important.
- Check out our live round table video for attendees to interact with each other and exhibitors. Already integrated into the Expo platform is proven technology for you to participate in live video lounges to interact with exhibitors and fellow amateur operators. You’ll find this is a great way to meet up with friends, talk to vendors, and network on specific subject areas.
