BFRA, RAAG and TRAC Memorandum of Understanding

Panayot LZ1US reports on the IARU-R1 site about co-operation between
the Bulgarian, Greek and Turkish amateur radio organisations

The national Amateur Radio organizations of the neighboring Balkan
countries Bulgaria/BFRA, Greece/RAAG and Turkey/TRAC signed a
Memorandum of Understanding. The three countries have a long history
of ordeal by natural disasters like earthquakes, fires, floods and
other dangerous natural phenomena.

One of the first aims of amateur radio in cases of emergency is the
support of the communication network of the state, where human life
and property is at stake. The agreement concerns not only such support
but also coverage of events which promote and strengthen amateur
radio, friendship and co-operation between people like: Field Day,
support of local and worldwide sports events, contact between schools
with the International Space Station, Scout Jamborees and other
similar events.

The Memorandum of Understanding was signed by three presidents Viktor
Tzenkov, LZ3NN, Manos Darkadakis, SV1IW and Aziz Sasa, TA1E.
