Get on the air for Christmas (GOTA4C)

Welcome to Get on the air for Christmas (GOTA4C)

As part of the ‘Get on the air to care’ campaign that the Society has been running with the NHS since April, we’re launching a new focus for Christmas.

Called ‘Get on the air for Christmas’ and shared on social media with the hashtag #GOTA4C, it will bring together a few activities that radio amateurs can participate in over the holiday period. It will run from Saturday 19 December to Saturday 9 January.

We know that Christmas can be difficult for many at the best of times, but with the extra restrictions due to COVID-19 we want to make sure that every radio amateur feels part of a caring amateur radio community.

We’re kicking off the campaign by asking clubs that are planning special nets for Christmas Day and Boxing Day, or indeed any time over the holiday season, to send details to radcom@rsgb.org.uk so we can publish them in the next RadCom issue, in the GB2RS news scripts and on our RSGB website.

Our other confirmed activities are listed below. More will follow in the coming weeks…
