ARLA/CLUSTER: Abertura dos registos para o ILLW 2016 já tem mais de 75 participantes de 20 paises

ILLW a stand out on the calendar

The premiere event, the International Lighthouse and Lightship Weekend
already has 75 registrations from 20 countries, each eager to be part
of this annual portable activity.

The basic aims are to promote the heritage of navigation that kept
seafarers safe, and expose modern Amateur Radio to the wider general
community.

On August 20-21, a large number head for lighthouses, lightships and
marine navigation beacons, using portable Amateur Radio to put them on
air.

Whether you’re in the Americas, Australasia, Europe, South Africa or
Asia, there will be plenty of action.

There were about 500 in nearly 50 countries this year, and it seems
likely to be repeated in the 2016 event in August.

To see the registrations so far, perhaps make one yourself, read past
reports, or the easy guidelines, visit the dedicated website illw.net
