[***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.
