Hi Giulio, I guess there is a problem when I try to visit the eme.org website I arrive on a travelling blog, have a look: Image en ligne 73's Pierre-Francois, F5BQP Le Samedi 26 décembre 2015 22h03, Giulio IW3HVB &lt;iw3hvb(a)gmail.com&gt; a écrit : Hello! A quick update on the next EME conference. The conference, as announced, will be held at the BHR Hotel near Treviso. http://www.bhrtrevisohotel.com/it/bhr-treviso-hotel/home The dates are confirmed: from 19th to 21th of august. We reserved the whole hotel and conference center, that should be able to accomodate the large part of the attendance, the others will be hosted in other hotels nearby if necessary, at the same rates and with shuttles between them (we will deal with the bookings). The hotel is not far from Treviso airport, with free shuttles from it. This choice was made because on Treviso airport land the majority of the low cost airliners. We have a good number of sponsors, that will help us to ensure an unforgettable stay, from I0JXX, that many of you already know, to the fine CW paddles maker Mr. Begali (which has in store a mindblowing EME limited edition paddle for you to see), along with Messi e Paoloni Cables, CSY & Son (Yaesu) and others. One thing is for sure, the final raffle will be something! While we are still working on the website (we had a shortage of webmasters lately...), we did manage to prepare a neat collateral program for the ladies, that will be available for the audience as soon as the site will be online. The good thing is, if you don't want to bother with looking for air tickets, transfers and extensions for your trip (yes, there are some proposals for those too), we will be able to deal with your necessities directly. Since I own a Tour operator chances are that we will be able to shave your ordinary travel costs. We are working hard to host the opening of the conference in Venice, but logistics is a true nightmare, and politics adds to the equation rendering this part of the organization a total mess to deal with, but we don't give up easily! If you have any questions, or you want to make a leap of faith and book your flights well in advance, or you want to submit a paper for the conference, drop me an email to iw3hvb(at)eme2016.org <http://eme2016.org/> I'll come back soon. Enjoy the rest of the holiday season!
