 GB0BTA
on-the-air this weekend
Just a reminder GB0BTA will be active this weekend. The bands will be
80/40m 4m, 20m and 70cm.
30th Anniversary year award
This year is the thirtieth anniversary of the Braintree and District Amateur
Radio Society. So to mark this occasion we will be running a contest from
May to the end of July.
The aim of the contest is to collect 30 points. Points are awarded for
working our special event station (GB0BTA 15 points per contact), the
club callsigns (G3XG & G6BRH 10 points per contact), plus any of the
club members (5 points
per contact).
GB0BTA will be active during the weekend of 21/22 May. Points
for each callsign can be clamed for only one contact per band per day.
Also a minimum of two different callsigns need to be worked. QSO's via
repeaters will not count towards the contest.
The club callsigns will be active on our club nets (2nd and 4th Mondays
of each month), also the meetings in July (1st & 3rd Mondays) will
be operating evenings active on 40m, 80m and 2m.
A list of club members callsigns will be available on our web site http://www.badars.org.uk/
or by sending an SAE to the event organiser G0DEC QTHR.
For those who obtain 30 or more points, a certificate will be award. To
obtain the certificate, send a cheque for 3 pounds to the event organiser
(G0DEC) made payable to 'Braintree & District amateur Radio Society'
to cover postage and a
donation to the Essex Air Ambulance.
