Fellow Contesters,

The North Fulton Amateur Radio League and Southeastern DX Club invite
you to hear three special speakers at HamJam 2010.

     * Joe Taylor, K1JT
       <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Hooton_Taylor,_Jr.>, a Nobel
       prize winner and active ham radio operator will talk about weak
       signal work and EME. You may know Joe as the author of the WSJT

     * Ward Silver, N0AX <http://www.qrz.com/db/n0ax>, the editor of the
       ARRL Handbook, frequent QST columnist, and author of Ham Radio for
       Dummies will give an entertaining presentation on DXing and
       contesting. Ward is a very entertaining speaker that you won't
       want to miss.
     * Our own Hal Kennedy, N4GG <http://www.qrz.com/db/n4gg>, will
       provide a short introduction and demonstration of his Blue
       Lightning spark gap transmitter. This is a one of kind transmitter
       in the United States and uses authentic parts from the spark gap era.

Admission to HamJam 2010 is free. To defray costs we will accept $5 or
more donations which will give you the opportunity to win an Elecraft
K-3 or Flex Radio 1500 transceiver. Either of these rigs will be a great
addition to your shack.

Please talk this up and invite your ham and non-ham friends to attend.
This is a unique opportunity for hams and university students from
throughout the southeast to interact with our well known speakers.


Don't miss it -- this promises to be one of the ham radio highlights of
the year!!!
