Hi all!
That is a great idea. The EDXC had a similar virtual convention to which 
radio aficionados from India took part.

Greetings all!


The 34th Annual  Winter SWL Festival will be a two partial day affair 
that is scheduled  for February 26-27, 2021 (Friday and Saturday). 
Calendar year 2020 has  been a strange one for everybody with the 
Covid-19 pandemic disrupting  our lives. Therefore, the ability to hold 
an in person Winter SWL  Festival just isn’t practical for 2021. As a 
result, a decision has been  made to hold our annual gathering using 
modern technology, the Zoom  platform. Naturally, we hope to return to 
an in person event in 2022.


The  program is under development but we hope to have some of the 
regular  forum sessions as well as a few surprises along the way. 
Further  information will be provided as the schedule develops over the 
next few  weeks. Please check the NASWA Groups.io 
 forum, the SWL Fest event-specific e-mail 
reflector (this group), or the SWLfest.com  
website for Winter SWL Festival updates between now and the event 
itself.


There  will be a modest registration fee of $5.00 primarily to cover the 
costs  of utilizing the Zoom platform. Everybody needs to register by 
February  15, 2021 to participate in this event. Unlike past years, 
there is only  one way you can register for the event, online via PayPal 
– see http://www.swlfest.com   for details!


We look forward to seeing you at the 34th Annual  Winter SWL Festival on 
February 26-27, 2021. There are two things to  remember to do. The first 
is to register by February 15, 2021 in order  to participate. The second 
is to follow updates that will become  available on the NASWA Group.io 
  and at http://www/swlfest.com 
  over the coming weeks.

Hope to "see" many familiar faces there (and some new faces, too)!
Richard Cuff / John Figliozzi, co-Festmeisters
Rich D'Angelo, NASWA Executive Director

YAY, kudos to the Festmeisters! 
I have been suggesting this for years, for people unable to attend. 
I am happy that the pandemic is kickstarting this paradigm shift, leading to 
this virtual convention.
73s,
Mano
