I've always felt it was an honor to be able to organize the dinner for  the 
contest community every year.


Add my vote for staying at the  VCC and not going back to the Holiday Inn. 
As an additional data point the HI  could not have handled the record crowd 
we had for the contest dinner. What  many may not know is that I had a 
substantial waiting list for the Friday  event. The hotel opened up a wall, 
removed chairs from a room that were set up  for the next day, and hung curtains 
so that we would have room for more  tables. At the HI, that room is simply 
not available.


And the  deal for the dinners that the K6MM and K6TD were able to negotiate 
allowed us  to bring in wine without extra charges and to also save $5 over 
the cost of  last year's dinner. Huzzah!

By the way, I also want to thank Jeff, WK6I, for the great  job he did 
organizing the Contest Dinner and for selecting the speaker.  If there was one 
down side to the convention this year, it was  probably the audio problems at 
the Contest Dinner, but it was still an  enjoyable affair and an 
entertaining talk.

Subject: [Mldxcc]  Convention



We, for two, enjoyed the International DX Convention at  Visalia
more than ever due to the different venue.
There was a hint in  Convention co-chair's comments that SCDXC is
not 'sold' on Visalia  Convention Center which means back to Holiday
Inn. (UGH!!)
My  suggestion; paper the Convention Committee with comments about
how great  the new facility was & hope they are leaning toward using it
again  next  year.

73,

Dick
