1A0C - Santa Maria del Priorato
01-07-2012
Ingediend door: ON5EX
From 1 to 4 July, 1A0C will be aired from Santa Maria del Priorato, home of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. The call sign that will be used belongs to the “The Order of Malta’s Italian Relief Corps (CISOM),” an organisation specialised in bringing assistance and relief during emergencies. This underscores the dual value of this activation. On the one hand, there is the fun side amateur radio, giving a not so easy “new one” to as many stations as possible (especially from the US and Japan). On the other hand, however, there is the noble goal, as often seen in amateur radio, where a spirit of cooperation and mutual aid are shared by operators all over the world. The team’s aim, in fact, is to raise funds – thanks to donations and contributions from QSL requests – in order to buy radio equipment which The Order of Malta’s Italian Relief Corps volunteers will be able to use in case of emergencies. The operators list includes 1A0X, 1A0Z, EA2RY, EA5RM, EA7AJR, EA7KW, F5CWU, IN3ZNR, IT9YVO, IZ8IYX, PB2T, SP3DOI and KH6CG as a pilot for North America and Pacific. They will be active on HF and 6 m and the QSLs for contacts with 1A0C can be requested via Francesco Cozzi, 1A0Z.

Ingediend door: ON5EX
Als kleine jongen luisterde Bart Aerts vol spanning naar de oorlogsverhalen van zijn grootvader over de neergestorte bommenwerpers boven Achel en omstreken. Om deze helden uit WOII te herdenken is Bart als zendamateur in 2011 begonnen met MOTA-activaties in het noorden van Limburg op de exacte plaatsen waar deze vliegtuigen destijds neergestort zijn. Hij is dus de bezieler en de oprichter van de Memorial On The Air activaties in Belgie en wil hiermee de herinnering levend houden aan de vliegtuigbemanningen die gestorven zijn voor onze vrijheid. Wil je meer weten over deze activaties moet je zijn website maar eens bezoeken (www.on-raf-mota.be).
Op 23 juni 2012 zal Bart (met roepnaam ON3FMB) en een team van andere zendamateurs uit de regio (van de sectie NLB: ON4VLM en ON5WAL, van de sectie NOL: ON3EE en ON7KEI en van de sectie MTT: ON3EA) voor het eerst ook een speciale activatie (genaamd ON1RAFMOTA) doen op deze dag van de herdenkingsplechtigheden. Wil je eens komen kijken hoe Bart en zijn team de gevallen geallieerde bemanningen herdenken begeef je dan naar de Kleine Haart (KAPEL) te 3930 Hamont – Achel. Iedereen van harte welkom.

Kids Day - June 16
16-06-2012
Ingediend door: ON5EX
Kids Day is an on-air event to encourage young people (licensed or not) to have fun with Amateur Radio. The Kids Day operating event is not a contest. It’s a way to tell young people worldwide about the magic and mystery of two way hobby radio communications.
To do this, Amateur radio stations are being asked to devote this short time window to promote the terrestrial hobby and ham radio satellite operations to youngsters. This, by providing a place to make contacts with other Kids Day stations around the world. It is designed to give on-the-air experience to youngsters and hopefully foster interest in getting a license of their own. It is also intended to give older hams a chance to share their station and love for Amateur Radio with their children.
Date and Time: 1800 UTC through 2359 UTC on Saturday, June 16. Operate as much or as little as you like. Suggested exchange: Name, age, location and favorite color. Be sure to work the same station again if an operator has changed. To draw attention, call “CQ Kids Day.”

10 Meters: 28.350 to 28.400 MHz
