A special event commemorating the Louisiana Purchase will take place from April 21 to April 28, 2018. Sponsored by the NorthEast Louisiana Amateur Radio Club, the event will use the call sign W5L.
A commemorative full-color QSL card has been created for the event.
Operators will be from locations across Louisiana, activating the HF bands in CW, Phone and RTTY modes.
A schedule of the on-air times and more details are available at https://W5WZ.com/W5L
