various activities are planned in July, for what the organisers describe as a
'Global Amateur Radio event'.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana>A number of historic sites in Australia and other
countries will take part in this Echoes of Apollo event. HF radio stations will
be set up near sites that took part in the original support for the Apollo 11
mission.</FONT></P>

similar to those used by NASA in the original missions. Many of these sites will
be staffed by people that took part in the original Apollo 11 mission as
communications specialists.</FONT></P>
