In CQ-TV 277 is asked for comments on the proposals for changing IARU ATV contest rules and I send in my thoughts about each individual one.

I do not remember I have seen the final result or report about received feedback. Did I miss it or is it not yet published?

Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris

Yes, thanks for your comments. I have yet to collate them in preparation for the IARU Conference later in the year.

Are these up to date for September, i hear it's 2/3rd instead?

Rob

After some investigation, I can confirm that the September activity weekend is on 16/17 September.

My apologies for the wrong dates on the back of CQ-TV 280, that was an error introduced by me (using outdated information).

So 16/17 September are the correct dates.
