IARU Championship Contest – Special Call

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).


Italian HQ team on the air

Members representing the Associazione Radioamatori Italiani (ARI), the
Italian Headquarter team, will be active as II0HQ in the IARU HF World
Championship, from 1200z on July 12th, until 1159z on July 13th. QSL
via the Bureau or LoTW.


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.
