Convention results 2009

Special thanks go to the following people for their financial support through the donation of money or goods:
VK5LP our Patron, former WIA VK5 Division, anonymous home brew benefactor, Alan VK3XPD.

Thanks too go to the support of our commercial traders and second hand dealers/ amateur sellers as without them there would be no incentive to hang around for a protracted time at the convention centre and we buyers would miss out on all those goodies.

President David thanked all club members for their terrific support in all apects of the convention and hoped that the hounds enjoyed themselves as much as the foxes did in hiding the TXs. Total registrations were 140 plus partners and harmonics.

Home brew competition

This event is sponsored by an anonymous VK3 amateur. We thank this person for his/her generous support for home brew constructors. The intent of the generous support is to encourage home brewing.

Good participation was again the norm in the homebrew competition for 2009. The editor is awaiting some photos. As soon as these become available they will be posted on the site.
