Check back on this page OFTEN! This is our planning page for this years HamCamp/Anti-Forums.
Four Days In August is built around Anti-Forums: small, practical sessions where the goal is not to sit quietly while someone reads slides at you. These are hands-on, conversational, bring-your-own-questions gatherings focused on doing the thing, solving the problem, and sharing what actually works in the field. Think less “conference lecture” and more “garage full of radio people figuring it out together.”
Whether it is POTA, APRS, Meshtastic, antennas, filters, CW, SIGINT, or whatever strange-but-useful radio rabbit hole we fall into next, the point is simple: show up curious, leave with something you can actually use.
