Dutch Satellite Interest Days
Colloquium-like day First in 2013 and second held in 2015 Combination of lectures and multiple hands-on sessions Many people started or restarted with amateur satellites!
Hosted by the VERON VHF day Satellite part organized by

How it all started
No satellite activities on a national level in NL AMSAT-NL too busy building satellites Just a ‘community day’ would be perfect! How to start?
Rob PE1ITR made the link to the VERON VHF day
Further ideas made during international AMSAT travels:

First Sat Day 2013 - Paasloo
No idea about number of participants30 subscribed, but many more during popular talks!
Same day as a national ‘radio rally' nearby Perfect location, excellent weather Young, old, male, female and even amateurs from Belgium. Great audience – Big success!

Second Sat Day 2015 - Apeldoorn
Initially only small room available, will 30 people fit? We closed the registration after reaching 100 participants! Again a mixture of people
including student for STEM like project Big boost for amateur satellite hobby in NL

TLE lotteries for the community
Advanced Satellite Tracking lecture by Nico PA0DLO Quick course TLE parameters, including a quiz! TLE lottery: ‘Orbit fitting' Expert active in the back ground
Very helpful to the satellite community

Education in satellite theory and practice
Starting with Amateur Satellites lecture Hands-on demo sessions Very popular and useful for many radio amateurs Emphasis on simplicity Sound bites of different satellites Beginners session and expert session in parallel

Hands-on demo sessions
Broad selection of LEO satellitesHO-68 for receive only, practice of pointing and Doppler tuningAO-73 for QSO, practice Doppler and the FUN of hearing QSOsSO-50 for more ‘easy’ fun of making QSOs
Multiple receivers from many participants Selected passes communicated in advance All-worked-out sheet available for all Hell-of-a-job to combine passes and fixed program

PR
Old fashioned paper magazine works fineElectron, the ‘Dutch RadCom’, build-up of information
Dutch amateur radio Internet news sitesThe ‘Southgate Effect’
Keynote talks attract people On-line participant list motivate other people to join
Huge amount of work to keep up to date with 100 participants

Lessons Learned
Program a bit too crowded … … but nice full for an overwhelming satellite experience … Space hardware available is really great Not our ‘own’ event, sometimes difficult for planning Both presenting and organizing is a bit busy …. Big step to start such an event Don’t under-estimate 100 participants! Very broad audience to target
Existing sat users, but also many new (many novice licensees) Renewed satellite amateurs
“Hey, these LEO sats are cool and relatively easy”
