Many of us still remember how afraid we were to ask an experienced operator to stop whatever they were doing and allow us to make come contacts, or how difficult it was to overcome mic fright; We have reserved time on each stations for exclusive use by workshops participants, with no pressure to "make points", and with support from experienced operators.

Participants will learn about radiosport, use of amateur radio as a public service activity and emergency communication, and will have a chance to get answers to all their amateur radio related questions they always wanted to ask, were too afraid.
