To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-364.01
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]
