[UK-CONTEST] GB7HQ - IARU Contest - 14,15 July

[John Warburton G4IRN]

The RSGB will be fielding a new callsign this year for the IARU HF Championship: GB7HQ (see http://www.gb7hq.com/). 
The contest takes place from 1200Z, Jul 14th to 1200Z, Jul 15th 2007 and GB7HQ intends to be active on all the HF contest bands on both CW and SSB; the contest exchange will be 'RSGB'. A list of the operators and host stations can be found at http://www.gb7hq.com/2007/2007-Ops-List.html

The team are particularly keen to contact as many UK (and overseas!) contesters on as many bands as possible and on both CW and SSB. To recognise contacts with GB7HQ, G3LZQ has kindly agreed to manage an awards programme, with a series of attractive certificates on offer (see http://www.gb7hq.com/Award-Info.html):

Bronze award - contact GB7HQ on three band/modes
Silver award - contact GB7HQ on six band/modes
Gold award - contact GB7HQ on nine band/modes
Platinum award - contact GB7HQ on all twelve band/modes

Any op on any station will be able to tell you the run frequency of all the other stations, irrespective of band or mode.

The QSL manager for GB7HQ will be Nigel, G3TXF: direct, bureau and LOTW (See http://www.gb7hq.com/QSL-Info.html).


John, G4IRN.
