The European Radio Amateurs' Organization
announces a new party on the air, this time with the motto: "World Radio Day".
Remember this is not a contest, it is just a radio meeting with a few simple 'rules', better to call them recommendations.
Purpose: the World Radio Day (WRD), February 13, was proclaimed in 2011 by the Member States of UNESCO and adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2012 as an
International Day devoted to Radio, a mass media, simple and low cost, specifically suitable to reach remote communities and vulnerable people.
So let's honor this sector, of which we are part, listening and contacting other stations like us.
Date & time: February 12th and 13th, 2022, Saturday and Sunday, 00:00-24:00 UTC.
Bands & modes: all modes and frequencies, mainly in HF bands, but not only.
EFG.
Call: "CQ World Radio Day EURAO Party".
Exchange: the usual RS(T) and callsign as required.
Logs: for statistic purposes only, we ask participants to submit their logs to
party@eurao.org in ADIF format, where the filename should be your callsign (e.g. EA3RKF.ADI).
There will be no results or league tables, only statistical information about number of QSOs, countries, callsigns, OMs/YLs/Clubs, etc.
Certificate of Participation: for all those sending the log and without a minimum of confirmed QSOs.
EuroBureauQSL: you can use it to interchange QSLs even if you are not member. In this case, just send the QSL
to the entry point in the country of the station you have contacted.
