For those going to the Fort Wayne, Indiana Hamfest this weekend, the AMSAT forum is on Saturday at 1pm... and the other involves APRS... at 10 am.
Hummh, I don't see a HAMFEST object anywhere near Indiana on the APRS map. It would be nice if a local there put a hamfest object on the map so that mobiles could see this information on the front panel of their APRS radios and attached GPS's as shown here: www.aprs.org/avmap/HFESTx.JPG
That image is the GPS map display and on the front panel of the radio it would show the talk-in frequency and time of the forum. Everything you need to know. By the way, any hamfest in the world with an APRS object can be found by the simple check of http://map.findu.com/hfest*. Right now, I only see one, in New Jersey.
I guess it is getting too cold for hamfests.
