W2H Commemorates 75 Anniversary of Hindenburg Crash

hindenburg.jpgThe NJDXA commemorates the 75 anniversary of the crash of the
Hindenburg with the special events call W2H. On May 6th, the actual date of
the disaster, we will operate two HF and one VHF stations from the Lakehurst
Naval Air Station. Our operating location is only a few yards from the
disaster site in hanger "A". 

The Lakehurst NAS operation will use the call W2H. During the periods April
28 through May 5, 2012 and May 7 through May 12, 2012 individual club
members will operate as W2H/75 from their home stations. The /75 indicates
the 75 anniversary of the crash.
