The WTFDA is happy to announce that the 2004 annual convention is planned to be held in Omaha, NE, hosted by long-time members Matt Sittel and Michael Hawk.  

On January 30, the Park Plaza Regency Lodge was selected to be the host hotel for WTFDA 2004! This hotel offers a unique "lodge" ambiance and a central Omaha location near 108th and Pacific just off of I-680. Additionally, they have promised that we can assemble antennas on-site during the convention. You can reach the hotel at (402)397-8000.

The special WTFDA rate is $79, and includes many ammenities, including hot breakfast, in-room refrigerator and microwave, coffee maker, iron, and safe.

The tentative schedule includes a cookout at the Sittel's Thursday night for the early arrivals. Friday will include a tour of E-skip magnet KMTV channel 3, followed by dinner at a nearby restaurant (not included in the registration price) and the business meeting. Saturday's events include the WTFDA quiz, door prizes, and the banquet (a barbecue buffet). We are currently arranging a series of talks about DX, and plan to have RDS and DTV setups in action. Late July and early August can bring about amazing all-day tropo in this part of the country, so be prepared!
