*Microwave Update 2016 - October 13 – 15 - *
*St. Louis, MO*



The Microwave Update 2016 “Early Bird” discount is being extended to
Thursday September 22nd.



This date is the same as the deadline for the discounted block of rooms we
have at the Holiday Inn – Airport West.  In addition to the discounted rate
the block of rooms include a free breakfast on Friday, Saturday, and
Sunday.  The hotel does not normally include free breakfast with their room
rates.  Please consider staying at the Holiday Inn as the hotel gives us a
break on the cost of putting on the conference by the number of rooms we
sell.  Without this break the cost of the conference would be much more.

We have a full schedule of speakers for the Technical Sessions on Friday
and Saturday
