BIPT informs that between May 30 and June 18 2022 there will be a military exercise in Elzenborn. On that occasion 2 frequencies in the 6 meter band will be used:  50,200 MHz en 51,075 MHz.

The amateur radio service has a secondary status in this band, while the military service has a primary status.

Radioamateurs are asked to respect this and if possible avoid the use of these frequencies during this period and definitely listen very careful before transmitting if they want to use these frequencies.

On the occasion of the 75th anniversary of our UBA, more than 60 stations with the special ON75 prefix will be on the air during the months of January and February. Naturally, the UBA invites all amateurs worldwide to participate.

In the meantime the event has also received international publicity. From your cosy shack you will not only be able to hunt for these special stations: no less than eleven different certificates in two categories will be offered. You can read all about these certificates here.
