John & Rich, good to hear from you. I wholeheartedly support the idea of spring fest and can’t wait for an in-person event this year.
Happy new year to you and rest of the crowd.

We also are examining the possibility of once again holding an in-person event in cooperation with the current online ?Zoom? event. Better ease of travel and the potential for fewer health concerns in spring as opposed to winter were partial considerations for this decision to move the dates. It will now be known as: THE (Ahem) ?WINTER? SWL FEST ? even though it?s not in winter and covers far more than shortwave. (What can we say but we can?t come up with a better identifying moniker after more than three decades.) Thank you for your continued support and interest. We?ll be back in touch shortly. For one thing, we?ll want to poll past and potential attendees on their own interest and ability to commit to participating in an in-person event. 73s Richard Cuff John Figliozzi Fest Ringleaders ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Tue, 2 Jan 2024 13:04:57 -0500 From: Dennis Dura <k2dcd.d...@gmail.com> To: Discussion list for the Winter SWL Fest <swlfest@hard-core-dx.com> Cc: na...@groups.io, odxa yg <o...@groups.io>, wor <w...@groups.io> Subject: Re: [Swlfest] THE WINTER SWL FEST IS MOVING DATES !!!!!

In the aftermath of the pandemic, we know some folks are loath to gather in large groups nowadays; that's why we'll still have a Zoom component. We also will need to identify a physical venue for the in-person component, and we'll be picking a venue based, in part, on how many folks plan on joining us in person. If you're interested in updates, we strongly encourage you to register for the Fest e-group here: http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/swlfest This is the best way to keep up-to-date on Fest happenings without having to check the Fest website for updates.
