Hello UK contesters

The U.K. HQ team are pleased to have been issued with the callsign GO2HQ
for this weekend's IARU HF Championship. The contest runs from 1200z on 14th 
July 2012 until 1200z on the 15th July 2012, 160m to 10m, SSB and CW. We 
hope you will try to work all of the different GO2HQ stations which are 
located around the U.K. You should send the contest exchange 59(9) + ITU 
zone i.e. 59 27

Please visit www.gr2hq.com for information about QSLs and our Awards 
scheme - we have 2 new Awards this year for working GO2HQ on all 12 
band/modes in (a) the shortest possible time and (b) within a 30-minute time 
slot. The latter is an interesting challenge for you - you have to choose 
the best 30 minutes in the 24 hours of the contest !

Inter-U.K. propagation can make it difficult at times for the GO2HQ stations 
to hear U.K. stations calling - please persevere, bearing in mind that the 
GO2HQ station may have an S9+ pile-up calling them. Every GO2HQ station will 
be able to tell you the working frequencies on the other band/modes - please 
ask. You are also encouraged to work the other HQ stations which will be 
active from around the world.

Lastly - please keep a look-out for the following stations who are hosting 
GO2HQ stations - they may be active just before the contest starts with 
their own callsigns and will change to GO2HQ at 1200z :  G3BJ, G6MC, G0KPW, 
GM3POI, GM3WOJ, G6PZ, G3LZQ, M0DJW, MI0LLL
