Dr. Sat at the NPARC Hamfest
« on: February 07, 2015, 11:10 am »
On Saturday February 7th 2015 from 9:00am until 1:00pm, discover the wonderful hobby of FTA satellite feed hunting at the Niagara Peninsula Amateur Radio Club (NPARC) BIG EVENT Hamfest and Flea Market taking place at Merriton Lions Community Centre, 7 Park Avenue  in St. Catharines, Ontario.

We will be on location with a fully working Ku-band motorized dish system in order to showcase the types of channels which can be received by blind scanning.  DX the satellites in the sky for an out of this world experience! 

Admission to the event is only $7 and with over 80 exhibitors total, there's surely something which will be of interest for anyone attending. 

For more information, please visit the event's website at http://www.nparc.on.ca/content/bigevent/

How did this go? In my business of interacting with commercial radio shops that have retail outlets, I've tried to encourage some to also carry FTA equipment. More visibility can only help the hobby.
