The major change we made from last year was the inclusion of an extended demonstration time during lunch.  If you have something you'd like to demonstrate to other conference participants, this is your time to share your knowledge and expertise!  We'll be in the parking lot showing off tips, techniques, and equipment.

During our extended lunch-hour demonstration time, we will have a couple of communications vehicles on display, a Flex Radio demonstration, as well as the NBEMS system.

Handouts

If you are looking for a handout and it's not here, check back before the conference.  We'll post handouts here as they are provided to us by our presenters.

A "Handout" has three slides per page, in black and white, with room for notes. The "Presentation" is one page per slide, in full-size color.
