FRS Holland 25 December 2022

Dear FRS Friends,

At the end of the year a little message from us at FRSH. For most of you this weekend sees the start of the Holiday Season.

2022 has been a good year for FRS-Holland. In particular the Summer Splash (3-in-a-row) and the 42nd Anniversary broadcast produced a great response. Thanks to each and every one who supported us in 2022. We look forward to hear from you in the New Year.

In the mean time all eQSLs plus the hard copies via postal services, have been forwarded. There only a few hard copies left, so if you are interested you know what to do. The hard copy QSL looks slightly different and certainly is a ‘must have’!

News
We were a bit disappointed by the fact that conditions were poor last weekend. Shortwave propagation is unpredictable! The good news is that there will be a full repeat next XMas Sunday December 25th. Programmes run from 10:52- 15:35 UTC/ 11:52- 16:35 CET. Frequencies are 5870, 7700 & 9300 kHz. Mind you: this time 9300 is with higher power and 7700 with low power. Perhaps you find a little time to tune in between family business!

We wish all of you a Merry Xmas and a healthy, ‘radioactive’& successful 2023.
