IOTA Contest 2020:
The RSGB Contest Newsletter announces: "We have reached a point
with COVID-19 that it is inappropriate for us to run the IOTA
Contest in July 2020 in its usual format. We cannot encourage our
participants to operate in multi-operator groups nor to travel to
island locations where visitors are not currently welcome. We would
like your opinion on whether we should cancel outright or should
retain a contest this year for single operator, home stations only.
We are also conscious that a large number of our members are going
to be spending more time at home than normal. Unable to enjoy many
of our favourite outdoor contests we are proposing a series of
home-based day-time contests to entertain and support one another.
Both these issues are detailed in a survey which we invite you to
complete. This is at
https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/RSGB_HFCC_2020. The survey is open
until Friday 3 April after which the outcomes will be made public."
International Marconi Day:
The International Marconi Day, organised by the Cornish Radio
Amateur Club, and scheduled for April 25, has been cancelled.
