ILLW continues to get bigger

With 350 registrations from many countries for the 15th annual International Lighthouse and Lightship Weekend, there will be plenty of on air activity for this 48 hour fun event.
The event was started in Scotland by John Forsyth GM4OOU and the late Mike Dalrymple GM4SUC, both members of Ayr Amateur Radio Group which operates station GB2LT at Turnberry Scotland.

A number of nations have one registration. They are most welcome to be part of the weekend and are greatly sought after.
With a single entry are Chile, China, Curacao, Gibraltar, Honduras, Isle of Man, Latvia, Namibia, Panama, Spain, Switzerland, Ukraine and Uruguay.
The International Lighthouse and Lightship Weekend is on August the 18th and 19th.
Now is the time to visit the website ILLW.NET for an online registration, read the guidelines and to see what it has to offer.
