Once again, broadcasting professionals from around the world made the trek

The massive 2.25 million square foot convention, boasted more than 1,800
exhibitors, over 100,000 attendees, and $20.3 billion dollars in trade.
To the many participants who were also ham radio operators the pilgrimage
would not have been complete without their traditional visit to the ARRL
booth.

In what has become somewhat of yearly pilgrimage, amateur radio operators
from around the world, broke away from the hustle and bustle of the show
floor and made their way to the lobby of the North Hall to talk over all
things ham radio with the volunteer staff of the ARRL booth.

Ham radio operators from Australia, South Korea, Israel, Norway, Canada,
England, Ireland, Peru, Brazil, Argentina, Japan, New Zealand, Germany,
Belgium, Tanzania, Greenland, U.S. Virgin Islands, Poland, South Africa,
Bulgaria, and Spain were among the visitors to sign in at the ARRL booth.

was staffed by volunteers from various Nevada amateur radio groups.  ARRL
Second Vice President *Bob Vallio W6RGG* and East Bay Section Manager
Elect *Jim

visitors.

​Booth visitors we re able to gain assistance in licensing, renewing their
ARRL memberships, accessing ARRL services and programs, and how to find
