I would be happy to assist in this ic desired.. It doesnt get any simpler than
an FM station for an introduction to VHF/UHF and every technician can do it..
All you need is altitude and some beam (432 is essential). FM puts a lot of
emphasis on location but its the same for SSB which is why my primary site is
occupied by W4IY in June (who I work with in june).

Hello everyone....I would love to see a VHF101 at Dayton. Kent-WA5VJB and
I have been giving a VHF101 at the Central States VHF Convention for
several years now. In general, it is well received.
I usually give about 1 hour of PowerPoint about VHF and then Kent takes
over and helps the students to build a 432 Cheap Yagi that they can take
home. While I like to think that the information that I give is useful,
the students really LOVE building a working antenna that they can take
home.
I would love to give the VHF101 presentation at Dayton, but I don't know
if my health will allow me to go to Dayton in the future. However, I will
be willing to provide all the materials that I have for whoever might be
doing the presentation.
We have found that it helps a lot to strongly promote the class to the
clubs in the area of where the conference is being held(this year is
Wichita, KS). Strong advertisements will insure that there are plenty
of students at Dayton. If they don't know about it, they can't attend.
