Next 9 May active again: AO1EU, AO2EU, AO3EU, AO4EU, AO5EU, AO6EU, AO7EU, AO8EU and AO9EU, special callsigns to commemorate the creation of the EU.

An initiative of EA Digital Federation and European Radio Amateurs' Organization (EURAO), who offers QSL and Award to you.

The contact is also valid for the Radio Clubs of the World Award, EANET.

Despite requesting to use these special callsigns for the entire weekend, they has been authorized only for Monday May 9, 2011. Thank you, Mr. Minister!

How to contact the special stations?

All day, they will be on the air using the different bands and modes more usual (phony, CW, digital, etc.). A good way to locate them is through DX Cluster and/or also consulting the agenda of the activity.

How to get the QSL?

In addition to making contact (or listening the SWLs) with one or several of the active stations from all Spanish districts, you should act according to the case:

Members of FEDI-EA and/or EURAO: it is enough to request the QSL card on the website of EuroBureauQSL using the option "QSL Request", indicating in Manager: EA3RKF. It is not necessary to send your own QSL.
Hams not members from countries where EuroBureauQSL is present: send your QSL and a SASE to the entry point of your own country (national tariff), except those marked in red that needn't SASE (i.e. UK).
OMs from other countries: sent a self addressed envelope and 1 IRC to: FEDI-EA - P.O. Box 3050 - 08200 Sabadell (SPAIN).

Warning: Don't try to send your QSLs via IARU bureaus classic system, they will never get to us because its member society in Spain (URE) throws them away.

How to get the Award?

Those contacting with at least 3 special stations of different districts, will be able to download the special Award for free from the internet in pdf format.

Those who get 5 districts contacted will reach the Award with distinctive Bronze, with 7 to Silver and with the all 9 to Gold.
