About HamJam 2011
HamJam 2011 is a joint effort by North Fulton Amateur Radio League (NFARL) and Southeastern DX Club (SEDXC) to promote amateur radio in the southeast US by bringing respected contributors to amateur radio to our local community.
The 2011 event expands on the two previous HamJams.
- The inaugural edition in 2009 featured Joel Hallas W1ZR. His presentation, "The Doctor is In", was based on his QST Magazine column of the same name. Over 200 people attended the event which was held at the Roswell Georgia City Hall. Joel's stimulating presentation was well received and we received many requests to hold a similar event in 2010.
- HamJam 2010 was expanded to three speakers, and the Southeastern DX Club teamed with the North Fulton Amateur Radio League to put on the event. It was held at the Georgia Institute of Technology
College of Management's LeCraw Auditorium. HamJam 2010 featured:
- Joe Taylor K1JT who presented "Advances in Weak Signal Communication"
- Ward Silver N0AX who presented "What Does it Mean", and
- Hal Kennedy N4GG who gave a short introduction and demonstration of his Blue Lightning spark gap transmitter.
Over 300 people attended these stimulating presentations.

NFARL is pleased that the Southeastern DX Club is again joining us in promoting this year's event.
Net proceeds will be donated to the NFARL and SEDXC scholarship funds.
