OP0HQ in the IARU HF Contest

IARU-logoFor the first time in many years the UBA will participate in the IARU Contest on second full weekend of July, in a well concerted HQ-effort. We have put together a competitive team to man 12 band-mode slots aiming to give you the ‘UBA’ multiplier on all 6 bands and both modes. We will be using the call OP0HQ, which is an all-time new prefix. So, prefix hunters, watch out for us!

All QSO's will be confirmed with a QSL via the bureau. If you really need a direct QSL, you can send it to on7lx [at] uba [dot] be (ON7LX) (UBA HF Manager). The addres is OK on QRZ.com.
   

We will try to work you on all bands, both modes, and hope you will be there to call us!
