Title: Ham radio Special Event Station at 52nd Annual Wheelmen Meet
Post by: atorpey1 on May 03, 2019, 09:55:57 AM
Registrations to the 52nd Wheelmen Annual Meet in Sedalia, Missouri are coming in! We have attendees coming in from Puerto Rico, Wisconsin, California, Oklahoma, Michigan, Florida and all states between!
One of the celebrations planned is a Special Event Station set up by Ham radio operators in Sedalia. Ham Radio is the Amateur Radio Service administrated by the Federal Communications Commission, which issues distinctive radio station call signs at times for significant events in the United States.
Ham radio operators the world over take great pride and enjoy talking to these Special Event Stations who share their mission and purpose over the shortwave radio airwaves. At times special event confirmation cards or certificates are awarded to the hams that contact these stations.
Many other unique events are planned for the 52nd Annual Meet!!! Contact James Allen at 417-576-1464 or pedalers@swbell.net for more information and check your Spring Newsletter for the registration form.
