NZART’s 75th Anniversary Conference 2001 – Auckland June 1st – 3rd 2001
Preliminary Information – Update
During the coming months there will be a number of events and activities to help celebrate this significant event. Arrange something in your local area, put on a display or some other activity to promote 75 Years of NZART’s support for Amateur Radio in New Zealand.
The Conference committee is pleased to welcome Lester Earnshaw KB7FA, author and President of Kachina Communications as keynote speaker at the NZART 75th Jubilee Conference. Lester, formerly ZL1AAX, a pioneer in the development of SSB/HF communications in NZ, now lives in the USA.
Our Waiheke Wine Trail Special Jubilee alternative programme is definitely on, but with numbers limited to 45 per day, early booking will be essential. (NB: Preference for this programme will be given to those booking a full weekend.)
Looking forward to seeing you all June 1st – 3rd 2001 for a great weekend.
HOT OFF THE PRESS: Conference callsign will be ZL75
Venue
Alexandra Park Function Centre, a top class venue easily accessible from all routes into Auckland.
Saturday
Registration continues at Alexandra Park Function Centre, followed by the opening ceremony and guest speaker Lester Earnshaw, NZART AGM and forums.
Forums this year will be repeated 2 or 3 times to allow those attending to sit in on as many as possible. Speakers at the various forums include ZL1BPU, Murray Greenman (Digital Modes and Frequency Standards), ZL1AOX, Ian Ashley (AMSAT’s AO40), ZL1BNQ, Richard Gamble (Portable AREC equipment), ZL1MO, Irving Spackman, (How to Work Through Satellites), ZL1AMW, Alan Wallace (ARPS & GPS) and talks from Civil Defence and Land SAR representatives.
Interesting alternative programmes will be available for those not attending the AGM or forums, and in the evening, those attending the dinner & social event will be entertained and informed by our speaker, well known broadcaster Philip Sherry.
Sunday
Forums and alternative programmes will continue throughout Sunday, and again, the evening dinner & social promises to be an entertaining and enjoyable event.
Trade, historic, promotional & publicity displays, car boot sales & souvenirs will be available at various times over the weekend.
Accommodation
There are over 30 motels or B & B’s within a 5 km radius of the Function Centre, but it would be wise to book early, as functions such as the adjacent Boat Show will also have people requiring accommodation.

The “blue” version can be used in similar printed applications where colour printing is available.
The “flash” version is for use on web pages. It gives a flashing alternate black–then–blue presentation. See the NZART web opening page. Put a copy on your web page too!
The first 3 graphics files are suitable for inserting into your email messages. How this is done depends on the software you use for mailing. Use HTML (and not TEXT) for your messages. You may be able to import a graphics file into your “signature file”. If not, import it into a dummy message along with your signature information and then save this message as a template. Copy this template each time you make a new message. Again, the procedure depends on the software you use. It can be done! Try it!
