OH2AM's 60TH ANNIVERSARY

[IK0ZCW]

19 September marked the 60th anniversary of the OH2AM station's debut in the 1964 Scandinavian Activity Contest. The newly formed OH-DX-Ring achieved remarkable success by winning first place in both multi-multi CW and Phone categories. The anniversary is commemorated by the release of Laura Piipari's new book, "Atlas of QSL Cards", a fascinating journey through the world of DX guided her late father's valuable QSL card collection (https://atlasofqsl.com/). The OH2AM-60 Lottery, launched in August, concluded with ten winners (DL2TOS, HA1DAE, K6CZ, K8MFO, LU6DOT, OH2KI, OH4X, TA4RC, VE3ZZ and W5DV) receiving a fresh-off-the-press copy of the book. Among the Scandinavian stations participating in this weekend's CW leg of the SAC, you will also hear the mothership OH2AM and its modern version OH8X from the Far North. [TNX OH2BH]
