Ten-Tec has done a great job of announcing their very popular hamfest and SEDCO IV.
http://radio.tentec.com/Hamfest
It's their 40th anniversary with special events planned.
Take a look and plan on being part of a ham's dream weekend. It's held during a great season
in this area and the ladies will love the shopping!
Please note the SEDCO convention tickets will remain the same as last year at $25, as will the
Saturday evening dinner catered by Damon's at $25. Ten-Tec will again offer the tickets
beginning July 1st, and please, please give calls when ordering. This allows us to have the
badges ready at checkin and speeds things up at the door.
Call the MainStay desk (865-428-8350) and mention SEDCO for your convention or the Ten-Tec
Hamfest hotel reservations. Additional information at
www.SEDCO.Homestead.com
SEDCO works in partnership with Ten-Tec because we are interested in the same thing...fellowship
for our wonderful hobby. Ten-Tec is in business to sell American made equipment of course,
but they take this time to get to know their customers and to let us know them. They listen to us
and BTW, take a look at the new survey on their webpage
http://radio.tentec.com/Amateur.
Click on 'survey' at the top of the page. As said, 'they are listening'!
Information on these two events will be updated often during upcoming months, so check the
websites, become enthused and plan ahead. SEDCO's presenters will be the BEST ANYWHERE in the
areas of DXing and Contesting. We always have some surprises. These folks come to give back
to the hobby, and we also accent youth in our hobby. As said, shopping is a super side event(s)
or the main event for some!
DX Publishing and The Carolina DX Association (CDXA) are strong supporters of SEDCO, as are The
Tennessee Contest Group (TCG), The Tennessee DX Association (ETDXA), The North Carolina DXCC,
along with several clubs/groups participating. ICOM, YAESU, Carole/David Bower and the Goldthorpe
Foundation are very supporting and giving, as are many others. Our web site will have more about
the prizes.
Pass the word please, and if you have any questions contact me at
W4NL@Charter.net or Ten-Tec.
