    Low-frequency World Heritage Grimeton Radio Station, SAQ, will transmit from Sweden on May 1 as participation in the European Route of Industrial Heritage's "Work It Out" observance.

    "As part of the event, we plan for the first SAQ transmission since 2016," said Lars Kalland, SM6NM. The transmitter start-up will begin at 0930 UTC, with the transmission to follow on 17.2 kHz CW at 1000 UTC.

    A live video stream[1] of the event will be available. Kalland said no QSL cards will sent, nor will SAQ post a list of reports, but SAQ does invite brief listener reports via e-mail[2].

    "We sincerely hope that all the SAQ transmission on 17.2 kHz will go as planned," Kalland said. "But, as always, there is a reservation that the transmission [may be] cancelled on short notice."
