Then at 1500 10m 28.320MHz USB and afterwards 1976kHz USB subject to interest and availability.

Are there any members interested in organizing an entry in this event, which must currently be on single operator basis. Comments on the Forum please. Up to four individual SARS members can make entries from their home QTH or mobile locations. Scores are submitted using a logging program, such as N1MM and count towards the clubs total. These all count towards the societies position in the Super league table. G8DXU will probably be active either from home or mobile location and hopes that there will be one or two other society members making an entry.
