- Calling All Atari Users Worldwide:
-
- The 8th annual Washington, DC AtariFest '92 is to be held on
- October 10th and 11th, 1992. This grand event will be held at
- the convention facilities of the Sheraton Reston Hotel in the
- Washington, DC suburb of Reston, Virginia in the USA.
-
- Nearly 40 vendors, developers and dealers, will be on hand
- with expositions of their products. There will be numerous
- seminars and demonstrations available to all in attendance, along
- with many door prizes, a banquet, terrific bargains and a lot
- of fun for Atari computer afficionados.
-
- In order to publicize this show worldwide, and as a means to
- say hello to our Atari friends in foreign lands, the Washington,
- DC AtariFest '92 is reaching out around the world on the
- international shortwave radio bands. You may hear our
- advertisements by tuning to the broadcasts of Radio New York
- International(RNI) in the 41 meter band at 7435 KHz between the hours
- of 0100 and 0500 UTC on the 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th of September,
- and on the 5th of October, 1992. In the United States, these hours
- translate to 9:00pm until 1:00am EST, on the 6th, 13th, 20th and 27th
- of September, and on the 4th of October, 1992.
-
- Yes, Atari is on the air. The alternative computer joins
- hands with the alternative radio station. This former "pirate"
- station is reminiscent of Radio Caroline, and if you haven't as
- yet heard Radio New York International, you have really been
- missing something quite special in shortwave listening, so please
- give a listen.
-
- From everyone making preparations for the Washington, DC AtariFest
- '92, we wish all our friends around the world the best of
- everything, and who knows, perhaps some of you can come to our
- fine show. Do not forget to listen to RNI on the dates mentioned,
- and please spread the word to others.
