ARLA/CLUSTER: RaDAR Challenge - Rapidly Deployable Amateur Radio stations.

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

The RaDAR Challenge

The RaDAR 'Challenge' is a unique event aimed at promoting the use of
Rapidly Deployable Amateur Radio stations.

Categories may be changed at any time during the challenge. The points
system is so structured as to encourage portable RaDAR operations
especially moveable RaDAR stations.

RaDAR operators are encouraged to be self-sufficient during each
challenge, with not only power supply and communications equipment but
food, water, protective clothing and shelter, not forgetting the first
aid kit.

The first RaDAR Challenge for 2017 takes place on Saturday 1 April
from 00:00 to 23:59 UTC, but each radio amateur can decide his or her
maximum, single period, four-hour activity. All amateur bands are
allowed including cross band contacts via amateur radio satellites.
Modes - CW, SSB, AM, FM or any legal digital mode. The exchange is
your call sign, your name, a RS or RST report, your QTH and grid
locator.

Information about the scoring, multipliers, bonus points and log
sheets can be found on page 26 of the 2017 Blue Book. Are you going to
take up the challenge?
