Dutch YL- award 2018
Almost one year ago we turned the month of March into
‘our month’, as we launched our Dutch YL-award. We made a
lot of long distance radio contacts with radio amateurs all
across the globe. This year we will celebrate
International Women’s Day, by organising “Ladies Night at
PI4AA”.
CQ ham radio… mail from Japan!
Through their radio contacts radio-amateurs make
friends far off. Sometimes these contacts lead to
something special. Today, a big envelope arrived, covered
in strange signs and exotic stamps. Inside, a Japanese
magazine for radio amateurs: the ‘CQ Ham radio’ accompanied
by a 50MHz special. Somewhere in the middle of the
magazine one finds an article about the Dutch YL-award. In
Japanese, of course.
Yukiko Maki 7K4TKB is a freelance writer for ‘CQ ham
radio’. She contacted us some weeks ago about the Dutch
YL-award 2018. She asked if she could write an article
about our activities. Yes, of course! We’re not exactly
sure what she wrote, but we are Proud 2B PI4YLC! in a
Japanese radio magazine…
PI4YLC active in the Russian DX contest.
PI4YLC in RDXC with nine YL operators! Posted
on 17/03/2018 by pa1eng
the Dutch Young Ladies Club contest team joined the
Russian DX contest (RDXC) for the 6th time. Since a
YL-operator team participated at the SP-DX contest in
2012, the team has grown every year and now consists of
eleven Young Ladies. The YLs live every where in the
country (and just across the border in Germany), it is a challenge to have everyone present at the same time. That
is why it is extra special to have PI4YLC participate in
the contest with nine (!) YL-operators. OM Raymond PA5DX
helped us with the set-up.

Moravia, in the Vysočina Region of the Czech Republic; 35
