IZ2FME
EuCW Chairman
EuCW Bulletin No 2019/8
=======================
1) Thank you all for my election to the EuCW Chairman (de IZ2FME).
First of all, Iâ€Öd like to thank Alex I5SKK (and all the EuCW Board) for the
great work he/they made during the last years; itâ€Ös very useful not only
for our EuCW activities, but also for the CW world in general. Thank you,
Alex also for what you wrote about me: I didnâ€Öt expect to be elected as the
EuCW Chairman, and Iâ€Öll do my best.
2) What we think we could do for the EuCW Club.
2.1) Articles about the EuCW Club.
As Alex I5SKK already told you in his last Bullettin, I wrote a short article
for RR (Radiorivista-ARI Italian magazine - sept. edition), about our
Club, its origins, its purposes, its activities and rules (also concerning
the Snake & Ladders, QRS week, etc.). Iâ€Öd like to ask each of you to do the
same, on your local magazines, Clubs, web pages , etc..., to promote the EuCW
Club and to let other OM know we exist (hi). After that, please send us a
copy of your articles, possibly in English (or a short summary in English):
so we can publish them on our site, at the end of the year.
2.2) EuCW special commission about the harmonization of the IARU Regions band
- plan?
Itâ€Ös time to get more and more involved in the process of the harmonization
of the IARU Regions band - plan: why donâ€Öt we keep in touch about it by
nominating a special commission to study this process in order to suggest
what do do and how to do in formal meetings (IARU/ITU)? What about trying
to push Ham Radio National Clubs to ask to Governments to extend the ham
radio bands dedicated to the CW mode?
2.3) EuCW award.
Weâ€Öd like to print a new EuCW award: are you an artist? Would you be so kind
to send us some ideas about the new lay - out?
2.4) EuCW (annual?) dinner?
We thought: "Why donâ€Öt organize an annual (?) EuCW dinner somewhere in
Europe?". What do you think about it? It could be a nice way to meet each
others and talk about our activities, cw, projects, etc.
3) EuCW Activity: Snakes And Ladders.
As you know, the main goal of the "Snakes & Ladders activity" is to make
friendly and relaxed QSOs: points are given to the stations for each QSO and
a bonus can be earned by working ladder and snake squares; there are 2 runs
of this activity, each with six operating periods of a month. The
"winter/spring" run starts on January 1st and ends on June 30th. The
"summer/autumn" run starts on July 1st and ends on December 31st. QSOs must
take at least five minutes, stations must be all European: each OM may be
contacted once per day, irrespective of the band. This is not a contest with
short QSOs and a fixed format. On the contrary: the "Snakes & Ladders"
activity promotes QSOs without any particular format where QSO partners have
real conversations over at least 5 minutes. Contacts made must be
point-to-point. QSOs shall be made in the dedicated CW sections of all
amateur bands from 160m to 2m (60m and 4m excluded), as follows: 160m:
1.828-1.838 MHz, 80m: 3.560-3.570 MHz, 40m:7.030-7.040 MHz, 30m:
10.120-10.130 MHz, 20m: 14.060-14.070 MHz, 17m:18.085-18.095 MHz, 15m:
21.060-21.070 MHz, 12m: 24.905-24.915 MHz, 10m:28.060-28.070 MHz, 6m:
50.090-50.100 MHz, 2m: 144.100-144.110 MHz. We invite you to take part in
the "Snakes & Ladders" activity; it is a good way to improve our cw skills and
our rag-chew capacity.
I hope to read you soon with your suggestions.
Best 73 es see you on the air, de
IZ2FME MiKi
