The General Assembly 2021 of EURAO was held the last Saturday of June via internet, with more people participating live and more topics to discuss than ever.

One of the most interesting addressed points was the call for participation in projects such as: its own Emergency Communications coordination, the setup of an European DMR network and a new DXpedition team.

Are you planning to participate in a Field Day soon? Or in a SOTA activation, in a DXpedition or in any other radio activity outside the QTH? Do you have any insurance that covers any unforeseen risk that may occur?

Now EURAO offers you its Radio Amateur Insurance for only 10 EUR/year^*.

With a coverage of 9.000.000 EUR, the purpose of this service is to guarantee the pecuniary consequences of the civil liability incumbent on the insured due to consequential bodily, material and immaterial damage caused to third parties as a result of their radio amateur activities, including travel, and events organized by the subscriber, including assembly and disassembly operations.

The European Radio Amateurs' Organization, supporting the initiative of its member association Federación Digital EA, announces a new party on the air, this time with the motto: "CB QSL Party". Remember this is not a contest, it is just a radio meeting with a few simple 'rules', better to call them recommendations.

• CB DX Divisions: a good example of self-organization
• EURAO General Assembly 2021: on June 26, virtual again
• EU-DX Contest 2021: results

Because COVID-19, the popular Friedrichshafen HAM RADIO exhibition has been canceled again. However, EURAO will hold its General Assembly on the scheduled date: Saturday, June 26, 2021, at 17:00 CEST, virtual for the second time.

Like last year, Google Meet will be used for the meeting and the resulting image will be more similar to the picture on the left than the usual group of people around a table.

The European Radio Amateurs' Organization announces a new party on the air, this time with the motto: "with a simple dipole". Remember this is not a contest, it is just a radio meeting with a few simple 'rules', better to call them recommendations.

In this issue you will find:

• World Radio Day 2021: Evolution, Innovation, Connection
• IW3IBG new Vice-president of EURAO

One month before the end of the year, EURAO's annual financial results promise to be the best to date: income item beats previous records and expenses are half of last period.

From the spending point of view, due to the pandemic, EURAO did not attend the HAM RADIO exhibition (it was canceled), nor did it travel to face-to-face meetings of inter­national bodies (CEPT, ITU, ...), although it is participating, more than ever, in their meetings, via videoconference.
