COMING UP - FIRST GLOBAL RADIO FRIENDS DIPLOMA

 COMING UP

GLOBAL RADIO FRIENDS DIPLOMA

Twice a year (January & July) group members - and only group members - will have the chance to get this numbered diploma.
It is a diploma simply to proove your joy of listening to radio on SW / MW / LW.
Of course it is free of charge!
And it is not a contest!
The task will be to listen to at least 15 countries (it is the transmitter site that counts) from at least 2 continents for 15 minutes with all the details you need for a reception report within the period of the contest month. Five of these logs have to be published on the GFR - Facebook pages including a photo or a short video, all of the logs have to be forwarded to the admins (on paper) at the end of the respective months. Furthermore you should publish on the GRF facebook page a photo of your shack or your favourite radio.
Once again, this will not be a DX-contest, there will be no winner.
All of us radio listeners are winners.
No matter whether you have only one receiver or 20, no matter which antenna(s) you use, everybody has the same chance to receive the GFR Diploma
But the equipment you‘ll use must be your own. WebSDRs ans KiwiSDRs only count, when they are your own. Also logs via internet streams don‘t count
The diploma will be issued only in electronic version.
Further details about the first diploma month - starting on 1 July 2021 - will be published in time.
Hope you like the idea and will participate
Wolfgang & Dejan
(your admins)

Global Radio Friends DIPLOMA JULY 2021: PROGRAMME DETAILS Some people asked what programme details are expected to fulfill the diploma requirements. Basically we want  from you all the details you would need to send a reception report to a station. (Anyway, you could use your logs for this purpose and have an added value.
