The Annual General Meeting of the Wireless Insitute of Australia (WIA) was held on Saturday 28th May 2016. The AGM was followed by the Open Forum and the Awards presentations, which were streamed live into the Australian mainland.

That afternoon, a number of amateurs delivered some very interesting presentations on a number of topics. Two rooms were utilised, giving attendees an option on what presentations they wished to attend. I gave a presentation on the World Wide Flora Fauna (WWFF) program and the VK5 National & Conservation Parks Award.
Later that night the formal dinner was held at the Paradise Hotel. The Norfolk Island Administrator Gary Hardgrave and Doug McVeigh VK0DMV spoke at the dinner.

The AGM looks a lot more interesting than I imagined. I might be tempted to go next year!
