Europäische Organisation der Funkamateure

Because COVID-19, the popular Friedrichshafen HAM RADIO exhibition has been canceled again. However, EURAO will hold its General Assembly on the scheduled date: Saturday, June 26, 2021, at 17:00 CEST, virtual for the second time.

Like last year, Google Meet will be used for the meeting and the resulting image will be more similar to the picture on the left than the usual group of people around a table.

The European Radio Amateurs' Organization announces a new party on the air, this time with the motto: "with a simple dipole". Remember this is not a contest, it is just a radio meeting with a few simple 'rules', better to call them recommendations.

In this issue you will find:

• World Radio Day 2021: Evolution, Innovation, Connection
• IW3IBG new Vice-president of EURAO
• EU-DX Contest 2021: first edition

One month before the end of the year, EURAO's annual financial results promise to be the best to date: income item beats previous records and expenses are half of last period.

From the spending point of view, due to the pandemic, EURAO did not attend the HAM RADIO exhibition (it was canceled), nor did it travel to face-to-face meetings of inter­national bodies (CEPT, ITU, ...), although it is participating, more than ever, in their meetings, via videoconference.

The European Radio Amateurs' Organization announces a new party on the air, this time with the motto: "working on 80m and 40m bands". Remember this is not a contest, it is just a radio meeting with a few simple 'rules', better to call them recommendations.

Due to COVID-19, most CEPT/ECC meetings this 2020 have been held online, which has made it much easier for EURAO to participate.

This has been the case of WGFM #96, June 8-12, whose final screenshot is that of the attached image, and CPG23-1, June 22-23.
