Calling all UK CW operators!

The first UK Annual CW Table was started by Roger G3SXW and Nigel G3TXF in 1983.

This year will be the 27th table and will cover all 10 amateur radio bands from 1.8 to 50 MHz.

To all UK CW operators
You are invited to join the 27th annual UK 10-band CW table, starting 1st January 2009.

What's it all about then?

The purpose of the table is to encourage CW activity on the HF bands and six metres. Each year participants start afresh and work as many DXCC entities on each of the ten bands as possible between 0000Z on 1st January and 2359Z on 31st December.

All UK Radio Amateurs are welcome to participate. You do not have to be active on all bands to make an entry. You just have to make some QSOs using Morse Code.

All CW QSOs count: rag chewing, contests, general DXing. No QSL cards are required: you are on your honour to report your score honestly.

There are no prizes, it's just a bit of fun and it helps to keep CW activity going throughout the year.

How do I take part?

The 2009 table has just started. Start keeping track of your band scores and submit them via the easy to use web site form. That's it! It's really a lot of fun - it makes having those QSOs with UA3 on all bands worthwhile and it will amaze you how your score can mount up, especially if you take part in a few contests along the way.

I look forward to welcoming you to the UK CW table. Any questions, just ask.

73, John

G3WGV, N3GV
