This coming weekend, October 11 and 12, 2025, an impressive event is taking place in Goa, India. A well-designed and informative website is at https://hfi2025.in/
The venue is Goa College of Engineering, about 10 miles east of the Dabolim International Airport. The registration is closed by now and the list shows 600 attendees.
The program is filled with lectures, presentations and displays introduced by 20+ speakers. The focus is on digital modes, satellites and radio technology in general, but operating a radio station, as well as DXing and contesting will be brought up.
I am impressed by the competence and the number of Amateur Radio enthusiasts in India, the most populous country of the world.
