Thank you for the tip! I do note that UNESCO has yet to post details about WRD this year, but I believe they typically publish information only a couple of weeks before the event.
Hopefully UNESCO World Radio Day 2022 is going to be held, our four radio stations in Indonesia are eager to be a part of it.
At the moment all the UNESCO webpages and publicised links take you to the 2021 events. Even the World Radio Day website page has no details of this years activities, themes or plans.
Works Radio Day (2022) is supposedly only 3 weeks away but I can see any information anywhere.
Does anyone here reading this blog have updated information?
the currently registered stations for IMD can be found here

Notice that the list lacks stations ftom USA, if someone would contribute…
forgot… to register (here http://gx4crc.com/gb4imd/) the station should transmit from (nearby) one of the Marconi historical sites or stations

Hope there will be a few cw stations operating. Not many last year.
