[amsat-bb] April 18 World Amateur Radio Day 2012 - 50 Years in Space

[JoAnne Maenpaa]

Hi everyone,

Every year on April 18 the IARU celebrates World Amateur Radio Day to note
its anniversary starting in 1925.

This year's theme for the World Amateur Radio Day 2012 is Amateur Radio
Satellites: "Celebrating 50 Years in Space" in remembrance the launch of
OSCAR 1 on December 12, 1961, and the launch of OSCAR 2 on June 2, 1962.

The AMSAT News Service would like to publicize the events your group is
planning for April 18, 2012. Just send the information to me and I'll get
the news out.

Thanks!
