BERU 2016 – VO1LET

Hi Bob

Let me kick off with a venue for next year – VO1LET is scheduled to operate from the old RN station at Admiralty House Museum near St John’s, NL by kind permission of SONRA and VO1DK, who administers the station on their behalf.  As yet undecided whether this will be an Open or Restricted entry.  I figured that LET would be as quick as most 2 letter calls, as GQ wasn’t available in NL.  There’s a direct flight twice a week from LHR, so a lot less hassle than PEI (and I suspect many other places!).

SARL’s “Africa Contest” QSYs away from BERU

Hello UK Contesters,

Good news for BERU fans. (Ooops must be more PC on here . Good news for
Commonwealth Contest fans.)

For 2016 the SARL have moved their new “Africa All Mode International DX
Contest” to the third weekend in September (17-18 Sep) and away from the
clash with BERU on the second full weekend in March that we had this year.

Thanks to the dignitaries (RSGB President John G3WKL and IARU Region 1
President Don G3BJ) who politely lobbied the SARL on our behalf, we got a
good result. Well done.
