The Zero Retries Digital Communications Conference (ZRDC) will be held on Saturday, September 13, 2025 at the Edward Hansen Conference Center in Everett, WA.
“Due to the pandemic and other reasons, there has not been an in-person amateur radio digital conference for several years or any known plans for upcoming conferences. With GNU Radio hosting their conference at the same venue the week prior to ZRDC, Zero Retries seized the opportunity to bring back the in-person Amateur Radio Digital Conference to the Pacific Northwest.”
About the ZRDC
Planned presentations and demonstrations will be designed to enhance the skills and knowledge of the participants with topics such as but not limited to the IP400 Networking Project, M17 Digital Voice/Data system, MMDVM-TNC data system, ARDC’s 44Net VPN, software defined radio (SDR) and AREDN, HamWAN and other Amateur Radio microwave networking. Attendees will have the opportunity to connect with peers, and discover innovative technologies that are shaping the future of Amateur Radio. A call for papers has been sent, which will provide the opportunity to learn from leading experts. The ZRDC 2025 will highlight the resilience and adaptability of the Amateur Radio community in the Pacific Northwest by embracing new platforms and technology that continue to foster the passion for radio communication.
