It's a party and you're invited to RSVP. April 25th is International Marconi Day and amateurs around the world will be calling CQ to honor the man who helped bring us wireless communication. Register for the official event by visiting the website operated by the Cornish Amateur Radio Club. You'll find it in the text version of this week's Newsline script at arnewsline.org

The number of registered stations continues to grow - and you can see the list as well on the same website. There are awards available for shortwave listeners as well as hams. Visit the webite to see how to qualify. Internet-assisted modes, such as DMR, Echolink and Digital Voice modes are not eligible.
