2008 Straight Key Night on OSCAR in memory
of
ex-JA1ANG
You are cordially invited to take part in Straight Key Night
on OSCAR 2008, sponsored by AMSAT for all radio amateurs throughout the
world.
This year's event will be held in memory of Haruo (Harry) Yoneda,
ex-JA1ANG, a past AMSAT Director and co-founder of JAMSAT. Harry
was also a keen CW operator and a past member of the First Class CW Operators
Club (FOC).
Participating in OSCAR SKN is fun and simple. No scoring and no need
to send in a log. Just operate CW through any OSCAR, using a straight
hand key, at any time between 0000 and 2400 UTC on January 1, 2008.
In keeping with the friendly nature of this event, all participants
are encouraged to nominate someone they worked for Best Fist. Your nominee
need not have the best fist you heard, just the best of those you worked.
Please send your nomination to W2RS at w2rs@amsat.org.
Those nominated will be recognized in an AMSAT News Service bulletin,
and in The AMSAT Journal.
Ray, W2RS
