*Requested relayed message from OH2BH follows:*

*FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MAY. 05.2022*

Amateur Radio is Supporting a Special Mother’s Day Event for Ukraine –
EA4/UT5UY


Amateur Radio was suspended in Ukraine on February 24, 2022 but now there
is an allowance obtained to transmit amateur radio remotely, by using an
Ukraine CEPT license as long as the RF emissions are not from the Ukrainian
soil.



Well-known DXpeditioner Alex, UT5UY went on the air on May 4th as EA4/UT5UY
using a remote station in Madrid, Spain. Amateur Radio will also be used
during the upcoming Mother’s day when Alex will greet his wife, Sasha and
his 12 year old son Daniel, currently living in Finland. This is in line
with IARU’s theme:  “Never Alone”, and showcasing the fact that Amateur
Radio has an important role.



You can join Alex and his family on the air, on *Saturday, May 07*, on
14260 KHz at 11.00 UTC and again at 15.00 UTC and give Alex your moral
support that he and his family needs during these dire times.



Alex is ever grateful to Fred, WW4LL from  www.beloud.us as well as to
Jerry, WB9Z for providing Alex this remote station opportunity and for
bringing him back to the amateur radio brotherhood.



Warmest Regards,



Adrian, LA/KO8SCA,  Martti, OH2BH, Pasi, OH2MZB, Pekka, OH2TA and Timo,
OH5LLR.



PS: Adrian will bring 4U1UN on the 11.00 UTC occasion.
