IRTS Field Day Contests

Next weekend - Saturday and Sunday, 2nd and 3rd June 2012 - the first of the year's IRTS field day contests takes place, with CW field day, which runs from 15:00 UTC on Saturday to 15:00 on Sunday.

The IRTS CW Field Day contest coincides with similar contests in other
European countries, so there should be no shortage of QSOs.
While the emphasis in these contests is on portable operation, fixed station QSOs are welcome.

See www.irts.ie/contests for more information on this and other contests.
As previously announced by the IRTS, there are some rule changes this year - these are highlighted in the contest rules.


The Field Day series of contests continues in July with VHF/UHF Field Day, while HF SSB Field Day takes place in September.
