The station will be active on HF, VHF and UHF using as many modes as possible, as often as possible from the 1st until the 28th of May, being operated from the homes of club members.

To encourage amateurs around the UK and whole world to make contact with GB0GIG, we have produced an award certificate for you to collect.

These contacts can be made on any band or even all on the same band.
We hope to update a Log Book of the World account every day or two, so you can track your progress.
Finally, we find ourselves in a very difficult situation and some of us may be fed up being at home, so please do join in and listen out for GB0GIG to thank our healthcare workers!

UP75P - UP75O - UP75B - UP75E - UP75D - UP75A - Kazakhstan
“Pobeda 75” Memorial rules: the Association of Amateur Radio Services of Kazakhstan (AARSK) in cooperation with the Almaty Amateur Radio League (AARL) and the Soyuz Radiolyubitelei Rossii (SRR) conduct activity days dedicated to the 75th anniversary of the Victory over fascist Germany in the World War II.

1. The memorial activity period:
Start: 00.00 UTC May 2, 2020
End: until 23.59 UTC on May 9, 2020


2. The purpose of the Memorial is to pay tribute to the people who fought in World War II, took the hit and saved the world from fascism. Kazakhstani people remember and perceive the level of threat that was looming over the world in that time.

Diploma program:
3. QSO (SWL) on HF (including WARC) and VHF bands with various types of modes (CW, PHONE (SSB, FM, AM), DIGITAL (RTTY, FT8 etc.) as well as via any amateur radio satellites are accepted. Repeated QSO are accepted provided they are made on different bands, and, if on the same band – using different mode.

AARSK established two diplomas - “POBEDA 75 Kazakhstan” and “Victory is one for all-75”. The word “POBEDA” comes from the Russian language and means “Victory”.

4.1 To receive “POBEDA 75 Kazakhstan” diploma it is necessary to make QSO (SWL) with 6 special stations including UP75P, UP75O, UP75B, UP75E, UP75D, UP75A, so that the word “POBEDA” is collected. QSO with UP75POBEDA memorial station can substitute for any one of the missing letters to be collected.
4.2 To receive “Victory is one for all-75” diploma one needs to achieve 75 points. Each QSO (SWL) with any Kazakhstan memorial station operating in the Pobeda-75 Memorial registered on hamlog.ru gives 5 points toward that score. QSOs with other memorial stations registered on hamlog.ru give 1 point.
Special certificate will be issued to all operators involved in the activation signing the special callsigns listed above. The certificate is free and is issued only in the electronic form through hamlog.ru. All SWL applications will be reviewed upon completion of the Memorial.

The Organizing Committee provides only electronic QSLs which can be obtained through arl.hamlog.ru , LoTW, Eqsl.cc, qrz.com LogBook.
Paper QSLs can be provided at the discretion of the special memorial stations operators at their expense.
The program manager is Ms. Oksana Mikhailenko-Nekrasova (UN5GV), e-mail: un5gav@gmail.com

P*75FREE celebrating freedom in the Netherlands
75 years ago the allied forces liberated The Netherlands from Nazi rule, ending the second World War, five years after it started. The southern part of The Netherlands was liberated in the autumn of 1944, while the northern part was only liberated in the spring of 1945.

On May 4, 1945 the German forces formally capitulated to the British Field Marshall Montgomery. The capitulation was effective the next day.

The Dutch therefore celebrate the end of WW2 for the whole of the country on May 5 every year.

YNOMY DX Group & friends want to place attention on the valuable freedom we attained and have enjoyed ever since, with a radio-activity during the month of May.

We will activate 10 different special callsigns from May 1 to May 31: PA75FREE, PB75FREE, PC75FREE, PD75FREE, PE75FREE, PF75FREE, PG75FREE, PH75FREE, PA75FREEDOM and PD75FREEDOM.

QSL
A special QSL card will be available for OMs who have contacted one or more of our stations. We will send out cards to all contacts via the bureau approximately two months after the activity. If you want to receive your card direct, please use ClubLog OQRS: https://secure.clublog.org/logsearch/P?75FREE. (replace the ? for the letter in the call you worked)
