This special callsign GB80PW, issued to Practical Wireless magazine to celebrate the publication's 80th year in print, had its first airing in January this year.
However, PW editor, Rob Mannion, G3XFD received a number of requests to operate the station at weekends, rather than a weekday, as most people were at work and unable to get on the air in time.
In order to accomodate those requests, Rob has now opted for operation on the Saturday following PW's publication.
So, please look out for GB80PW on the Saturdays immediately following publication days during 2012.
The dates are Saturday February 11th, March 10th, April 14th, May 12th, June 16th, July 14th, August 11th, September 15th, October 13th, November 10th and December 15th.
Keep those dates in your diary and Phil G3XBZ and I – and the other operators who'll be involved – look forward to working you!
Rob Mannion, G3XFD
