'Welcome Weekend' - W1AW Special Event
Midnight exam sessions to mark new US amateur radio rules
As new Amateur Radio Service rules phase in next Friday, February 23,
eliminating the Morse code requirement in the US, Hiram Percy Maxim Memorial
Station W1AW will mark the milestone with a
weekend-long special event.
In addition, a number of volunteer examiners will be on hand at ARRL Headquarters
- both before and after the new rules become effective at 12:01 AM EST
- to offer Amateur Radio examinations under the current and new rules.
ARRL Regulatory Information Specialist Dan Henderson, N1ND, is helping
to coordinate the celebration. He says Headquarters staff and other volunteers
will keep W1AW active for the 'Welcome Weekend' event.
