[TVARC] SATERN's 30th Anniversary Celebration: Net Rally (June 25 through July 8, 2018)

[Anthony Hackenberg]

 The Salvation Army Team Emergency Radio Network (SATERN) will celebrate
its 30th Anniversary with a SATERN Net Rally!  If you are interested in
participating in this net rally, you can read all the details at the SATERN
website ( http://www.satern.org ) by clicking on a hotlink entitled "SATERN
National Liaison Newsletter  ...".   Alternatively, I've excerpted most of
those details and provided them below.

To celebrate thirty (30) years of operation, SATERN will be conducting
a *SATERN
Net Rally* from *Monday, 25 June through Sunday 08 July* 2018.  The
objective of the SATERN Net Rally is to inform the Amateur Radio community
about SATERN including what SATERN is and what SATERN does, its recent
activities and what frequencies SATERN can be found on and to encourage
SATERN net participation, increase SATERN volunteerism and, as always, to
have fun with our shared hobby.

All licensed Amateur Radio operators are welcome to participate.
They do NOT have to be a SATERN volunteer or a member of The Salvation Army.

All licensed Amateur Radio operators who check-in to any of the
registered participating
SATERN Nets will receive a SATERN QSL Card. Cards will be sent to the
addresses found on www.QRZ.com <http://www.qrz.com/>.
Only one (1) card per Call-Sign will be sent.

Operators checking-in to any SATERN Net registered for the SATERN Net
Rally will
be asked to provide their call sign, their name, and their location. They
may also be given an opportunity to make a brief comment. Net times and
frequencies can be found on SATERN's website (at URL:
http://qso.com/satern/SATERNNets.html ).

WinLINK can be used for check-ins only to the International SATERN SSB Net
and the International SATERN Digital Net.  See SATERN.org for more details
about WinLINK check-ins.

The QSL cards will be from WW9E, the official Salvation Army USA National
Headquarters station. WW9E was the long-time call sign for Major Patrick E.
McPherson, the Founder of SATERN, who became a Silent Key in May 2016.

Those checking into eight (8) or more nets will receive a SATERN
certificate via e-mail. The top 5 check-ins with the most confirmed log-ins
will get an honorable mention on www.SATERN.org <http://www.satern.org/>, in
SATERN's weekly Newsletter, and will be announced on the International
SATERN SSB Net on Monday 23, July and on Saturday, 28 July.
