 On behalf of the Central States VHF society and my conference team, I
would like to invite all VHF/UHF and Microwave enthusiasts and their
families to attend our 57th annual conference in Lincoln, NE. The
conference will be held at the Country Inn and Suites on the weekend of
July 24th – 27th, 2025.
The conference weekend will begin with our traditional Thursday night
Social followed by our hospitality suite. Friday’s events kick off with our antenna and
equipment testing session, vendor display and “Rover/Dish Row” There will also be a day trip
planned for the non-ham family members.
The conference begins during the in house luncheon and talk by a guest speaker Afterwards
the technical presentations will begin and will feature well known VHF and above community

the hobby. When the presentations end for the day, its dinner on your own with friends out on
