2021 Remembrance Day Contest

[VK7HH]

Attention ALL VK/ZL/P29 stations!

This weekend is the Remembrance Day Contest for 2021 (14th and 15th August) starting at 0300 UTC until 0300 UTC.

We'd like to see as many stations participate as possible. VK7 has taken out the title for as far back as we can remember.
So we'd like some serious competition 

If you do participate, even just for one contact, PLEASE submit your log. In particular there was no ZL logs from last year submitted so we'd love to see more ZL's on.
Maybe form a team with three of your mates!
