Oklahoma Special Event Callsign

The Edmond Amateur Radio Society has been assigned W5O as a special event call sign for the Great State Fair of Oklahoma. Saturday and Sunday (September 15-16).

Operations will be held on the sidewalk at 1204 S. Agnew from 2:00 - 7:00 Saturday, 2:00 - 6:00 Sunday afternoons.

If a metro area club would like to take an evening of operations as W5O (a couple of hours) on the 13th, 14th, or 17th - 23rd, let me know and we'll get you the info to operate the call sign.

It's up to you whether to run from the club station, one individual or divide up the evening into half hour or hour slots. Whatever works for you.
