December 16, 2007
To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-350.01
You are cordially invited to take part in Straight Key Night on OSCAR 2008,
sponsored by AMSAT for all radio amateurs throughout the world. This year's
event will be held in memory of Haruo (Harry) Yoneda, ex-JA1ANG, a past AMSAT
Director and co-founder of JAMSAT. Harry was also
a keen CW operator and a past
member of the First Class CW Operators Club (FOC).
Participating in OSCAR SKN is fun and simple. No scoring and no need to send
in a log. Just operate CW through any OSCAR, using a straight hand key, at any
time between 0000 and 2400 UTC on January 1, 2008.
In keeping with the friendly nature of this event, all participants are
encouraged to nominate someone they worked for
Best Fist. Your nominee need not
have the best fist you heard, just the best of those you worked. Please send
your nomination to W2RS at w2rs@amsat.org. Those
nominated will be recognized in
an AMSAT News Service bulletin, and in The AMSAT Journal.
[ANS thanks Ray, W2RS, for the above information]
