GB1JSS June Summer Solstice Special Event

[IK0ZCW]

Saturday 21st June is the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and is known as the June Summer Solstice. The sun will rise at 04:43 and set at 21:21 giving us 16 hours, 38 minutes and 19 seconds of daylight. A group of Essex-based Hams will be active (from as early as possible!) on 40m-10m and 2m for local (and not-so-local) contacts to celebrate this special day with the special call GB1JSS. We will be operating from Galleywood Common, 2km south of Chelmsford, Essex - around 45km north-east of London.
