WBZ 100th Anniversary Special Event

[Anita Kemmerer]

The Billerica Amateur Radio Society, along with the Hampden County
Radio Association in Springfield, will be commemorating WBZ’s 100th
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 and sends a
card accompanied by a self-addressed, stamped envelope. A historical
sheet will also be available for download.

If you or someone you know might be interested in operating one of the
special stations, please contact Larry Krainson, W1AST, at
[email protected]. Seeking New England operators only at this time.
