Special Events News – 27 September 2020

Since the change of regulations applying to special event stations in the UK, many activations are now able to go ahead. UK amateurs would like to thank Ofcom for their help in making this happen.

PJ4TEN is a special event station that will be active during October 2020 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of 10 October 2010. On that date, the former country of the Netherlands Antilles was dissolved and Bonaire became a special municipality of the Netherlands. As a result, Bonaire became a new DXCC entity on that date. Bonaire’s radio amateurs are organising a month-long operating event. The rules for the award can be found on the PJ4TEN QRZ.com page.

Hannes, OE1SGU will be active as OE1990SGU between 1 and 31 October to celebrate his 30th anniversary in amateur radio. QSL via LoTW, eQSL, or via OE1SGU either direct or via the bureau.

K1A will be operated as a special event station for the Amateur Radio Software Award until 4 October. Look for activity on 20 and 40 metres SSB. QSL direct to Claus H. Niesen, P.O. Box 126, Ames IA 50010, USA.
