HAM HAPPENINGS: RFINDER NOW FULLY SUPPORTS D-STAR LISTINGS
The world wide on-line repeater directory known as RFinder
now supports D-Star. This, as a direct result of its
editorial staff attending the D-Star forum at the recent
Dayton.
According to a press release by the publication, it became
apparent that there was a lack of D-Star repeater locating
options to the vastly growing population of D-Star user
base. As a result, as of May 24th RFinder fully supports D-
Star in the directory.
RFinder is available in the Apple App Store for iPhone and
Android devices. The web version can be found at

HAM HAPPENINGS: INTERNATIONAL EME CONFERENCE TO BE HELD IN
CAMBRIDGE ENGLAND
The 15th International Earth-Moon-Earth or EME conference
will be held at Churchill College, Cambridge, between 15 and
19 August. This is the first time that this conference will
be held in the United Kingdom and its planners say that this
will provide an opportunity to learn about this most
technically challenging aspect of the hobby.
The event will be hosted by the UK Microwave Group. In
addition to EME-specific lectures there will be
presentations on radio astronomy and deep space
communications, as both these subjects have much in common
with EME.
Two Nobel Physics Laureates from the world of radio
astronomy will be present at the conference. Joe Taylor,
K1JT, is a keen EME enthusiast and will be presenting a
paper on the MAP65 digital mode. His fellow-Laureate
Professor Antony Hewish is the speaker at the conference
gala dinner on Saturday August 18th.
All those wishing to attend must pre-register for this
conference before August 1st. Day passes and a range of
accommodation packages from one to four nights are
available. See www.eme2012.com for full details. (Amsat-UK)
