Ready for the next hunting season 2013-2014? Here you are the rules for foxes, hunters and trappers, the new category for SWLs in this fifth edition.

The season will start November 3, 2013 and will end on March 24, 2014. But this summer there is an aperitif: June 9 - August 30.

This is an idea of Jos, ON6WJ, and Johan, ON5EX, to promote QRP activity on the bands. Let's collaborate with them.

One more year, on 9 May, we commemorate the creation of the EU and also the European Radio Amateurs' Organization (EURAO) with some special activities.

Our member in Spain, Federación Digital EA, will be on air with these special callsigns: AO1EU, AO2EU, AO3EU, AO4EU, AO5EU, AO6EU, AO7EU, AO8EU and AO9EU. QSL card and pdf Award will be available.

The contact is also valid for the Radio Clubs of the World Award, EANET.

This fourth edition of the Emergency Communications National Exercise (ENCE in Spanish) changes the schedule, but not its purpose: to bring an opportunity to all those radio amateurs interested in practicing several useful operational skills.

The Exercise will be held next Saturday April 27, 20:00-21:00 UTC, open to international participation. In this occasion with special emphasis on 80m, specifically 3.760 KHz.

For the 3rd time in the world, "THE DAY OF YLs" 18 and 19 May 2013.

This weekend is intended to gather on the air all amateur radio women around the world and of course all OM are invited to participate.

The European Radio Amateurs' Organisation (EURAO), and its members, concerned about the growing problem of QSL cards not delivered to the addressees by some IARU member-societies, launched in 2010 their own QSL Bureaus Network with the strong commitment to make available, whenever possible, to all radio amateurs their QSLs at no extra cost other than shipping and handling, without any kind of restriction.

To do so, EURAO started coordinating the bureaus its members already run but also opened the possibility to new ones, managed by associations or individuals, with only a few conditions:

The EURAO individual membership fee includes the FREE exchange of QSLs between members worldwide. All you have to do is send all cards together to our 'central redistribution point' at EA3RKF. Then, you will receive the reply QSLs at home with our quarterly paper Newsletter. Quite easy, isn't it? Read more...
