Yaesu Heritage Year 2010

Just a reminder and update to look for the special event callsign GS2MP (club callsign of the North of Scotland Contest Group - GM7V) during 2010.

Operators Chris GM3WOJ/ZL1CT and Jim GM0NAI will be operating their vintage Yaesu transmitters/receivers and transceivers during the whole year.

Each calendar month they will use a different Yaesu radio, and radio amateurs worldwide are invited to work GS2MP and earn points towards the 'Yaesu Heritage Year Award'.

Operation will mostly be on 40 and 20 meters, SSB and CW, using classic radios like the FT-dx-100 (original), FT-200,
FT-dx-401, etc.

Yaesu (UK) Ltd are kindly sponsoring the event by supplying
special QSL cards, small trophies and a special prize to the overall 'winner' of this year-long fun event.

In January 2010, Chris, GM3WOJ, will start by using an
FT-200 transceiver.
