Whilst the discussion has all been about the main EME meetings, I would like to pass on my thanks to the organisers of the annual Dutch 'Heelweg' microwave meeting. I have just arrived home from the Harwich/Hoek van Holland ferry and wanted to pass on my thanks as soon as possible.
It was a most enjoyable meeting, with lots going on and many European EME ops in attendance to chat to and make plans.
What makes this meeting so special is that it is all about practical things. Lots of measurement bays to get all manner of items tested and lots of small ' traders' selling all manner of VHF and microwave gear. Being part of the Cafe VOS, food and drink was available all day. Great!
And the after-meeting Chinese meal in nearby Varsseveld sees more tables occupied each year. This is a celebration of all things amateur VHF/UHF and microwave radio.
My thanks to the organisers, to Hans and Ruud for looking after us on Sunday and not least to my travel companions, Dave and John.
See you at Heelweg next year?

I'd like to echo (no pun intended) Sams comments about Heelweg. I attend a lot of events each year an this is always the most enjoyable.

Best 73,
