Dear Club Members

I think we all agree, the segment less used on QO-100 NB tp is probably the Digital Modes (from .580 to .650), with the exception of the Winlink Server from IS0GRB (permanently at .635).

In order to promote the usage of this segment we decided to reactivate an old AMSAT tradition (used in the past on AO-10, AO-13, AO-40 and other sats): The Experimental Wednesdays.

Our proposal is to invite operators to use a different radio Mode every Wednesday's from 18.00 to 19.00 UTC.
For the next Wed 29th March 2023 we chose RTTY.

For the following week, we will wait for your proposal until Sunday 2 Apr 2023 at 23.59UTC. The next week mode will be announced the following day. If we don't receive any proposal, we will make one :o)

Please note: this is not a contest, there are no points, nor multipliers or score!

Our goal is to invite operators to experiment something new, that they perhaps have never tried before and make QSO. It's also a challenge to install new software, make the necessary configurations, etc.

So, let's give a new mode a chance!

See you on the next Experimental Wednesdays evening!
