Zero Retries Digital Conference to be held on Saturday, September 13, 2025 in Everett, WA

August 15, 2025 By Dan KB6NU Leave a Comment

I should have posted this sooner. My bad. If you’re in the Northwest and are interested in digital communications, please consider attending this conference in person. If you’re not, you can still sign up to attend the sessions virtually. There’s even an option for your club to attend virtually….Dan


We are pleased to invite you to the Zero Retries Digital Conference (ZRDC) that will be on Saturday, September 13, 2025 at the Edward Hansen Conference Center in Everett, WA. Due to the pandemic and other reasons, there has not been an in-person Amateur Radio digital conference for several years or any known plans for upcoming conferences. With GNU Radio hosting their conference at the same venue the week prior to ZRDC, Zero Retries seized the opportunity to bring back the in-person Amateur Radio Digital Conference to the Pacific Northwest. However, if people are unable to travel, there are alternative means to participate on the conference page link below and on the registration form.

About Zero Retries

Zero Retries is a unique independent newsletter that promotes technological innovations in Amateur Radio. The Editor, Steve Stroh N8GNJ, writes the majority of the newsletter with an occasional submission by one of his readers. Steve refers to Amateur Radio as, literally, a license to experiment with and learn about radio technology. He often jokes, but is serious, that radios are now computers… with antennas.

About the ZRDC

Planned presentations and demonstrations will be designed to enhance the skills and knowledge of the participants with topics such as but not limited to the IP400 Networking Project, M17 Digital Voice/Data system, MMDVM-TNC data system, ARDC’s 44Net VPN, software defined radio (SDR) and AREDN, HamWAN and other Amateur Radio microwave networking.  Attendees will have the opportunity to connect with peers, and discover innovative technologies that are shaping the future of Amateur Radio. A call for papers has been sent, which will provide the opportunity to learn from leading experts. The ZRDC 2025 will highlight the resilience and adaptability of the Amateur Radio community in the Pacific Northwest by embracing new platforms and technology that continue to foster the passion for radio communication.

In closing, I have created various ticket prices and multiple ways to participate. Please share this information as you see fit with others that might be interested. I have included the links below for registration and the conference. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your time and consideration and hope to see you at the conference.

Sincerely,
Tina Stroh KD7WSF
