RSGB IOTA Contest 25-26 July

 Αγαπητοί συνάδελφοι σας εύχομαι καλό και όμορφο Σαββατοκύριακο. Αυτό το Σ/Κ διεξάγεται ένας από τους καλύτερους Ευρωπαϊκούς διαγωνισμούς. Ναι, ο Ιούλιος μας αποχαιρετά με ένα από τα καλύτερα contest της χρονιάς, το IOTA Contest που διοργανώνει με μεγάλη επιτυχία η RSGB.

Όσοι την κοπανήσετε για … μαγικούς προορισμούς, καλά να περάσετε και μη ξεχάσετε να πάρετε τον ασύρματο μαζί σας και να καλέσετε κάποιο από τα νησιά που θα ακουστούν εντός ολίγων ωρών, στις γνωστές ρ/ε μπάντες. 

Ακολουθούν οι υποσημειώσεις «Οι διαγωνισμοί της επόμενης εβδομάδας» και τέλος της ανάρτησης να βρείτε και τις  «Προθεσμίες υποβολής ημερολογίων για προηγούμενους διαγωνισμούς». 

Σας εύχομαι καλό βόλι και να περάσετε ένα όμορφο διήμερο.
