GET READY FOR WORLD RADIO DAY_*
JIM/ANCHOR: World Radio Day, February 13th, was adopted in 2012 by the
United Nations to acknowledge radio's role in people's lives everywhere.
Although the focus is usually on broadcast radio services, amateur radio
will be involved in some events around the world. This year's theme is
"Radio and Climate Change." One of the many international events
happening involves the Shanghai Coast Radio Station XSG, which maintains
a Global Maritime Distress and Safety System as well as Morse code
telegraph services, The station is hosting a two-day Crossband Event in
which the radio station will communicate via CW with amateur radio
operators, with each side transmitting on their authorized frequencies
while monitoring the other party's frequencies. The event runs from
00:00 UTC on the 12th of February to 00:00 UTC the next day.
For a list of amateur radio frequencies that XSG will be monitoring for
ham transmissions, see the text version of this week's newscast at
