Get ready to ring in the new year with the festive annual IRLP New Year Around The World QSO Party on the 927.8375 Dartmouth repeater!
The event gets started early enough for the New Zealand nodes to participate at 11:00 UTC, December 31st (6:00 AM local time) and continues until at least 10:00 UTC, January 1st (5:00 AM local time) when Hawaii rolls into the new year. This is an open QSO party with no net control. It is carried worldwide with the IRLP Crossroads Reflector 9200 being the central hub.
Locally, the 145.490 repeater is normally the South Coast Massachusetts affiliate for the New Year Around The World QSO Party. Since the ’49 repeater is currently off the air, it will be carried this year in its entirety on SEMARA’s 927.8375 Dartmouth repeater. Enjoy and Happy New Year!
