The UKSMG organise a 24-hour Summer contest on the first weekend in June each year, and the aim is to work as many stations as possible in the 24-hour period. In 2023, the next contest starts on Saturday 3rd June at 13:00 UTC and finishes on Sunday 4th June 2023 at 13:00 UTC.
This weekend is shared with HF Field Days across Europe, and is an ideal opportunity to put a Six Metre station on and join in the Summer Contest, to give operators experience of the Magic Band.
