via Amateur Radio Daily: Titanic Memorial Special Event Honors Telegraph Operators

The Titanic Memorial special event, EG1912T, takes place April 10th through April 15th honoring all on board the ship.

We particularly wish to honour those who participated in the rescue, especially the radio station managers and telegraph operators Jack Phillips, Harold Bride and Harold Cottam, who played a leading role in the telegraphic communications of the most shocking rescue in history: the sinking of the RMS Titanic.

The event will take place on all bands utilizing all modes with an emphasis on CW. QSL cards will be available via bureau. More information is available on the EG1912T QRZ page.
