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

This year EURAO had a larger booth at the German fair in Friedrichshafen, where several associations from different countries shared space. In this way very positive synergies for all participants and frank climate of multinational collaboration was generated.

Multiple events and meetings took place in this unique setting of friendship, such as EURAO Assembly, YO SOTA Marathon Conference, ...

In this meeting, EURAO had the great opportunity to present itself to all other event attendees, national administrations and observers, like Wi-Fi Alliance, EBU (Eurovision) or NATO, just to name a few.
