Ice-olation Station WØJH Special Event

February 19-21, 2022

QSL Confirmations Only To: IceStation2022@radioham.org

No QSL Cards or postal requests please. Confirmation Certificates will be by email only!

Normally members of the Stillwater Amateur Radio Association (SARA), would operate this event from a frozen lake. Due to Covid and the need for social distancing, we have to alter our event again this year. We hope to return to operating from a frozen lake next year. While we are not in complete “isolation” due to Covid, we are based in MN where there is plenty of “ice” and we tend to become somewhat isolated during our winter months, so will be attempting to generate enough RF, to help shorten our winter. For the event this year, we will be using a distributive operating system. Several club members will be operating portable from their own QTH, including one operating portable VE3. All will be using the WØJH club call, and logs will also be uploaded to LoTW.

While the majority of our contacts are expected to be on SSB, where we intend to be ~3.860, 7.260, 14.260, and 21.360 + or – depending upon band conditions; we also hope to have significant digital activity primarily on FT8 and hopefully some on CW as well. Band conditions may also allow operation on 17 meters and 10 meters.

Please use the below QSL confirmation process only. No QSL Cards or other postal requests please. Confirmation certificates will be by email only to: IceStation2022@radioham.org
