Lancashire Day
Lancashire Day
by 2E0ZMO on Sat Nov 27, 2010 8:08 am
November 27th is Lancashire Day and at 21:00 Lancastrians around the world get together to celebrate and toast their Duke, HM The Queen.
In 2009 the club operated a very successful special event station from the market town of Ormskirk, in the south of the county, between 20:00 and 22:00 using the club’s callsign, GX2OA.
The good news is that we’re back for 2010 and will be running a special event station from around 11:00 until 22:00 on the 27th from the 9th Ormskirk Scouts HQ in Aughton.
We would like to encourage as many Lancastrian operators as possible to ‘sign in’ during the event and make contact with the station. All stations making contact will receive a special QSL card in return.
At 21:00, at the same time as many other events around the country, the Lancashire Day proclamation will be read out followed by the Toast to the Duke of Lancaster, HM The Queen.
