How to network if I don't live in NYC

I currently work at a LO that isn't located in a major finance hub. I want to switch to a L/S role and working with HHs hasn't been productive. I have a decent network within my sector but it's mostly junior people with no hiring power. My senior analyst only has me traveling a few times a year. What are some of the best ways to network to find job opportunities?
