Just noticed this item in looking at the announcement for the
Tenth AIAA Communication Satellite Systems Conference, to be held
at the Sheraton Twin Towers, Orlando, FL, 19-22 March 84:

Special Presentation, Wednesday, 21 March, 5:30PM:

Astronaut Participation in Communications Experiments

Dr. Owen Garriott, NASA Scientist/Astronaut and Stanford
University professor, will describe his communications and
scientific experiments on the recent STS-9 mission, illustrated
by film clips taken on board the shuttle and Spacelab.
[***End extract***]

This conference may be of interest to many readers of Space; it's
not expensive -- AIAA student memebers = free; student nonmembers
= $12; AIAA members or program participants = $140; nonmembers =
$190.  Not bad for 4 days of conference sessions, technical
exhibits, and a bound volume of available papers.

There's also two pre-conference colloquia on Sunday, 18 March 84,
for $45/$55 (members/nonmembers) on satellite communications
basics or on dbs antenna design.
