Just a reminder that we have the WBZ Special Event coming up next month in celebration of WBZ’s 100th anniversary. The Billerica Amateur Radio Society, along with the Hampden County Radio Association in Springfield, will be commemorating this anniversary by conducting a special operating event starting at 1300z/9:00 am EDT September 17 and ending at 0400z/12 am EDT on September 19. Amateurs using the callsigns W1W, W1B, W1Z, and WB1Z will make two-way contact with other amateurs across all bands on SSB, AM, CW, and digital modes. A special QSL card will be sent to anyone who contacts one or more of the special event stations. A historical sheet will also be available for download. The card will feature historical photos of WBZ over the years as well as a special 100th Anniversary WBZ logo.
If you or someone you know might be interested in operating one of the special stations, please contact Doug Bruce, N1WRN, at [email protected] or Larry Krainson, W1AST, at [email protected]. Seeking New England operators only at this time.
