"World Amateur Radio Day - 18 April
It's World Amateur Radio Day this Friday, the 18th of
April. Each year the
International Amateur Radio Union commemorates the
anniversary of its
formation on that date in 1925. The theme of this
year's day is 'amateur
radio supporting technology education in the
classroom'. Ole Garpestad,
LA2RR, the Chairman of IARU Region 1, asks all
national amateur radio
societies in the Region to encourage young people into
amateur radio. He
also urged amateurs to celebrate the day. He said,
"All of us, societies and
individuals, can celebrate in our various ways -
organising presentations,
club meetings, parties, honouring senior radio
amateurs who go back to the
early years of IARU, or just putting our equipment on
the air and making
just a single QSO on this day, so realising how large
our ham community is."
