IRTS 75th Jubilee

In 2007 the Irish Radio Transmitters Society celebrates the 75th anniversary of its founding in 1932.

As part of the jubilee celebrations the Society is organising an International Radio Contest, "CQIR - Ireland Calling".

For this event, references to Ireland mean the island of Ireland and it's offshore islands - both EI and GI.

CQIR is a once-off event with a difference - the difference being that overseas Entrants with 75 or more QSO's have the opportunity to win a trip to Ireland.

CQIR is a 24-hour, single-operator HF CW/SSB contest on the weekend of 29th and 30th of September 2007. As this is the fifth full weekend in the month, there is no clash with any established event.

The IRTS AGM will take place in the Vienna Woods Hotel
in Cork on April the 21st and 22nd 2007.
