VK100ANZAC commemoration

Post by VK3ALB »

ANZAC at the Western Front in 1916

The Geelong Amateur Radio Club in Victoria will in July commemorate Australia’s engagement in battle as the ANZACs fought at Fromelles and Poziéres in France on the Western Front in WWI.

With support from the Wireless Institute of Australia, the Geelong Amateur Radio Club will activate the VK100ANZAC callsign. A special QSL card has been designed and offered to all in the log.

Read all about it here.

The station will be on air on 20m in the afternoons for the next three days trying to contact F8KKH. They will also have 40m available to give F calls a chance to add this callsign to their log.

Apparently conditions on 80m were great last night in order to rack up four contacts from the US... :thumbup:
