10th anniversary of EURAO (2005-2015): from idea to practice

10 years A long path has been traveled and an intense experience lived since F5RCS proposed in mid 2005 the creation of an European association of radio amateurs.

In just ten years, EURAO has achieved: real members in more than 50 countries, in and outside Europe; setting up a global QSL service; recognition by: EU, UN, CEPT and ITU; economic stability; attendance to HAM RADIO exhibitions; performing projects and activities, such as awards, parties, emergency communications exercises or youth meetings; etc.

With your support, all of you, from readers to members, have contributed to an Amateur Radio more plural and diverse than ever, more free and with more options to choose, but not necessarily more divided in front of real problems and threats of our hobby.

A common front is possible for these issues and EURAO is open to collaborate with anyone, individual or organization, who shares the same aim. We will go ahead!

Thanks a lot for your trust and hope to keep your priceless collaboration for a long time. Happy birthday EURAO!!!
