After the great welcome of the previous editions, it comes again the "sprint contest" version of the EANET Award, devoted to the "Radio Clubs of the World". It will be on November 8, 08:00-12:00 UTC.
In just four hours you can win original and funny prizes that you can share with your mate or friends: hotels, restaurants, wellness or adventures.
Moreover, you will have the opportunity to contact those radio clubs you still needed to complete the EANET Award.
The European Emergency Communications Exercise (EECE) is about to practice the exchange of messages between radio amateurs with some fixed data, using a template like this:

EURAO calls for this kind of exercise for the second time, now on October 3, 9:00-11:00 CEST (07:00-09:00 UTC).
The main goal is to practice the skills needed to exchange messages, with an specific pattern, between hams in different countries.
The frequencies to be used are: on 40m (7.110 KHz) and on 20m (14.300 KHz), both in SSB. The language: English.
La Organización Europea de Radioaficionados anuncia una nueva fiesta en el aire, esta vez con el lema: "sube a la montaña". Recuerda que esto no es un concurso, es sólo un encuentro por radio con unas pocas 'reglas' muy simples, casi mejor llamarlas recomendaciones.
10th anniversary of EURAO and fourth time attending the exhibition in Friedrichshafen.
Lots of hams to greet and exchange views. Members, yes, but also friends. Some of them old friends of each year. Others just met for the first time. True ham spirit in the air. That's our hobby, that's EURAO.
