SARL 85th anniversary sprint

On Sunday 16 May, 4 days before the actual day, a three hour sprint contest will be celebrating the founding of the South African Radio League on 20 May 1925, 85 years ago.

The special call sign, ZS85SARL, will also be used for the first time during the contest.

The Sprint will run from 12:00 to 15:00 UTC (14:00 to 17:00 CAT) on the 20, 40 and 80 metre band. There are a large number of prizes to be won for individual achievements.

In addition, all logs with more than 10 contacts will go into the lucky draw for an ARRL Handbook while the participant under 18 years of age on the day of the contest who achieves the highest score will also win an ARRL Handbook.

A special 85th Anniversary QSL card will also be available for stations who work ZS85SARL.
