Special call PA08DWN Oct 3rd and 4th

On October 3 and 4 Dutch radio amateurs will be on the air from the original radio hut of the Sea Tugboat the Elbe from the harbour of Maassluis, about 20 Km west of Rotterdam. A special call will be used: PA08DWN, QSL via PA3ALM.
The Sea Tugboat Elbe was built in 1959 and was one of the most powerfull tugboats of its time. In the past the Elbe was also used by Greenpeace.
At the moment it is restored by a group of 60 volunteers to its original status and will serve in the future as a museumship. In the first weekend of October the Furieade event is taking place in and around the Maassluis harbour. This is a yearly maritime event.
