HAM-CON, Colchester VT, February 28, 2026

ARRL Vermont Section Manager: Paul Gayet, AA1SU, writes on the ARRL members list:

HAM-CON, the ARRL Vermont State Convention will be Saturday, February 28 at the Hampton Inn Colchester, conveniently located at I-89, Exit 16. HAM-CON is unique as it is the only hybrid convention. If you are unable to travel, you can join the forums and demonstrations on-line from the comfort of home.

We have another great show planned. Elecraft co-owner Wayne Burdick N6KR will do a presentation on the various Elecraft radios you might consider.

The World Radio Team Championship (WRTC) will be held in England this July and chairman Mark M0DXR will be available to tell us about it.

We’ll have forums on POTA activations, operating the ham satellites and operating on the long wave bands. Demonstrations will include AREDN, DMR and our HF station W1V. Add to this the flea market, ham exams, game shows, door prizes and hundreds of hams and you have a great time in the making.

If you buy your tickets by February 14th, it is only $8. Not sure you will be going? Buy your ticket anyway. If you cannot attend in person, watch the event on-line either during or after the event. However you choose, please attend, and bring a friend! Or if you are out of town, come up Friday, and spend the night in the hotel and wake up the next morning ready to hamfest!
