RADAR on the European Ham Radio Show

The hosts were gracious and had an interest in RaDAR. The show is informative for the upcoming Nov 4th RaDAR Rally.

Tuesday, October 24, 2023

RaDAR Rally Bonus Points added for using the COOL Logbook.

The RaDAR Rules have been updated.

Logging: A log is not mandatory but encouraged. Please use the "Community Online Open Logbook" (COOL) managed by Eddie ZS6BNE. It can be updated in real time or after the rally. The log will match contacts among entries with a QSL. A RaDAR to RaDAR QSL or RaDAR to Chaser QSL will earn the RaDAR operator one bonus point each. Email Eddie ZS6BNE for a security key for access. His email is on QRZ.com.
