Special event station HB9HST - IARU High Speed Telegraphy World Championship
Next week (Oct 17-20), the IARU High Speed Telegraphy World Championship will be held in Beatenberg, Switzerland. Teams from at least 16 countries, from as far away as Mongolia and Japan, will be participating. From Tuesday through Saturday, we will be running a special event station HB9HST, which will be available to our guests. I can't make any promises about how fast or slow they will be sending their CW; it should prove interesting.
