Pozornosť všetkých staníc, pozornosť všetkých staníc! Na vedomosť sa dáva, že dňa 30. mája 2026 si v Olomouci povedia svoje ANO Paula OK2YL and Vlada OK2WX. Spojenie bolo nadviazané, QSL potvrdené a od uvedeného dátumu bude log oboch operátorov natrvalo spoločný.
The ceremony will take place in the Telegraph building, which is not just a poetic coincidence, but a place with a deep history. Even before the First World War, the Telegraphia company was based here, and it was in these premises that Robert von Lieben received a patent related to the invention of the triode vacuum tube — a component without which amateur radio in its current form would not exist at all. The choice of location therefore testifies not only to good taste, but also to the technical outlook of the newlyweds.
And since a wedding without airwaves would be like a rig without an antenna, the newlyweds cordially invite us to a special wedding exhibition broadcast. The parameters are clear and we recommend tuning in advance:
- Date: Saturday, May 30, 2026
- Time: 13:00 – 14:00 UTC
- Frequency: 14.260 MHz ± QRM
- Mode of operation: SSB, 20 meter band
- Lineup: Icom IC-7300, výkon 100 W, dipól JPC-7 on the roof at a height of about 20 meters above the ground
Na akcii sa zúčastní okolo desiatky licencovaných rádioamatérov, no svadobčania by boli nesmierne radi, keby sa na frekvencii ozvalo čo najviac staníc z celej Európy. Chcú si z tohto dňa odniesť nielen manželský list, ale aj poriadne zaplnený log. Šanca nadviazať spojenie s čerstvo zosobášenou stanicou je, uznanlivejší z nás isto súhlasia, vzácna.
Log entries, antenna checks, and a charged backup battery — let the preparations begin. We recommend that all those interested in making a connection mark the date on their calendar or set an alarm so that they are not distracted by QRM from another part of the band just when OK2YL takes the microphone in his hand.
Dear Paula and Vlada, the band is yours. 73, good performance and may the signal always point you in the right direction in life!
