As you may have already learned, the 35th Winter SWL Fest will be virtual again this time using the ZOOM platform. Dates are March 4-5, 2022 and the schedule will track last year’s. (For reference, last year’s schedule remains in place on the Fest web site: swlfest.com )
Last year’s event went very well, if the reactions we received were any indication. While we wish we could be all back together in some eating, drinking and sleeping establishment, we think you’ll agree from just watching what’s going on around us that such an eventuality is just not prudent or possible this time. But hope for the future springs eternal!
The program, while somewhat truncated from the in-person version, is coming together nicely. But we still have a couple of slots open and therefore cordially invite you to step up and offer a suggestion and your services. The Fest forums are the centerpiece of the event where knowledgeable presenters conduct sessions on radio-related (SW, MW, amateur, LW, etc.) matters during which they share their expertise with and enthusiasm over a favorite topic or activity. Doing this over the ZOOM platform will truly give you a worldwide audience — and open this opportunity to potential presenters worldwide — if last year’s attendance and program are any indication.
If you wish to be a part of the 35th Winter SWL Fest - Virtual Version by presenting a forum, please contact me — John Figliozzi — at the e-mail address below and pitch your topic. We’d like to have these in hand by January 10, 2022 and will return an answer to your proposal by January 15, 2022.
Thanks for reading this. Responding to me, John Figliozzi, jfiglio1(at)nycap(dot)rr(dot)com).
73s, 88s and best regards,
The 35th Winter SWL Festmeisters
