1stOnAir this coming weekend, Friday night and Saturday, 7/31 and 8/1 !
Every 1st of the month, WWV ARC members are encouraged to get on the air for our 1stOnAir operating event. We'll schedule a 24-hour period aligned with a standard UTC day. The format is exactly like our October Anniversary operating event. Operators who would like to take part should contact Dave Swartz at swartzdaveco@gmail.com or R.J. Bragg at airrj1@gmail.com to request access to the Google event folder for the schedule (below) and also Operating Guidelines
Our next 1stOnAir is August 1, 2026 ! Check below to see who is operating when.
For club operators, please place your call sign in the appropriate cell for the hour, band, and mode of operation. Visitors to this website are able to scroll the operating schedule and see who is where and when. If you decide to change when you're operating, please be sure to make changes at the Google site. Consider signing for a 1 hour window at first to allow others on a busy band, but if an hour is vacant on the schedule, feel free to take a slot if it appears open. Sign in!
If you're operating digital or CW your exchanges are usually limited to signal reports, maybe a short CW conversation. On sideband you have the chance to share more and learn of each other's WWV stories. Be sure to share yours! Read the Operators Guide and also follow some of the links to the history of the station if you care to have more knowledge of WWV in general.
Thank you for the great February , March, April, May, June, and July 1stOnAIr events so far!
This August 1 also marks 150 years of Colorado statehood!
73, Dave Swartz, WWV ARC Communications Director
