European Radio Amateurs' Organization

Because COVID-19, the popular Friedrichshafen HAM RADIO exhibition has been canceled. However, EURAO will hold its General Assembly on the scheduled date: Saturday, June 27, 2020, at 17:00 CEST, albeit virtually.

For this reason, the image of this year's Assembly will be more similar to the picture on the left than the usual group of people around a table. Anyway, the agenda is full of interesting topics to deal with and even the admission of several new member associations.

Dear members and friends,

More than ever, we're witnessing an evolution of ham radio around the world. COVID-19 is just another catalyst that forces us to think wider than before, adaptive and think about changing seriously.

• EURAO at HAM RADIO 2019 and its General Assembly

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) admitted EURAO as a sector member in June, just a couple of days before HAM RADIO exhibition, although the official letter arrived later. That's why we were so happy after five years pursuing that goal.

Now Amateur Radio is no longer represented by a single organization. The more the better. Sincere thanks to all members who had believed in this project.
