The is supposed to be sort of a west coast NEAF coming up in September. Does anyone have the website for this? I cannot remember the acronym for it.

Thanks!!

You are looking for the Pacific Astronomy and Telescope Show

http://www.rtmcastronomyexpo.org/PATS.htm

It will be held at Pasadena Convention Center on September 13 and 14. There will be dozens of vendors (The exhibition floor has room for 80 booths and almost all of them are taken. ) The main speakers in the hall next to the conference room include Story Musgrave (astronaut), David Levy (Comet guy and author), Robin and Todd Mason (Journey to Palomar), John Dobson (telescope popularizer), Bob Naeye (new editor of Sky and Tel), Terry Mann of Astronomical League, Gary Palmer (solar imager) and others who have not yet been officially tied down, but are close.

Since you are posting in an imaging forum you may be interested in the imaging workshop with Tony Hallas and Dan Goldman (among others) on the Friday before that:
