Thanks to support from the Yasme Foundation, the citizen scientist organization HamSCI and Ham Radio 2.0 will share space and combine efforts at Dayton Hamvention® 2019, which is also the 2019 ARRL National Convention. Their displays will be in Building 4 (Volta), which is between the food trucks and the flea market.

The Ham Radio 2.0 area will serve to host a series of “booth talks” both by HamSCI presenters and presenters with a “2-point-0” perspective on operating and technology that looks to the future of ham radio. Presentations get under way at 10 AM on Friday and continue through 3 PM on Saturday.
