IARU Championship Contest – Special Call VC6IARU
Tim Ellam VE6SH, IARU President, will be operating at the Calgary Amateur Radio Association (
CARA) club station using the special call
VC6IARU
as part of a multi-operator, single transmitter team, giving out the
rare “AC” multiplier, for members of the IARU Administrative Council.
Both SSB and CW will be used.
The station will be active from 1200 UTC July 12 (Saturday) and ending 1200 UTC July 13 (Sunday).
RAC callsign assigned to VY2
The official RAC HQ station this year is
VY2RAC,
being operated by a three-man team who requested the call sign more
than a year ago. VY2RAC will be the only station sending the exchange
“RAC”, standing for the official HQ station of Canada’s IARU Member
Society (RAC).
Under the contest rules, there is only one HQ
station allowed per member country, although unlike non-HQ stations it
can be a multi-transmitter station.
