On Tuesdays and Fridays at 2330 UTC (6:30 PM EST), Keplerian Elements for
active amateur satellites are sent on the regular digital frequencies.

A DX bulletin replaces or is added to the regular bulletins between 0100 UTC (8

Audio from W1AW's CW code practices, CW/digital bulletins and phone bulletin is
 available using EchoLink via the W1AW Conference Server named "W1AWBDCT."  The
 monthly W1AW Qualifying Runs are presented here as well.  The audio is sent in
 real-time and runs concurrently with W1AW's regular transmission schedule.

All users who connect to the conference server are muted.  Please note that any
 questions or comments about this server should not be sent via the "Text"
window in EchoLink. Please direct any questions or comments to w1aw@arrl.org.

In a communications emergency, monitor W1AW for special bulletins as follows:
Voice on the hour, Digital at 15 minutes past the hour, and CW on the half
hour.

All licensed amateurs may operate the station from 1500 UTC to 1700 UTC (10 AM
to 12 PM EST), and then from 1800 UTC to 2045 UTC (1 PM to 3:45 PM EST) Monday
through Friday.  Be sure to bring your
current FCC amateur radio license or a photocopy.

"So let me ask you a question about this brave new world of yours. When you've
killed all the bad guys, and when it's all perfect, and just and fair, and when
 you have finally got it exactly the way you want it, what are you going to do
with the people like you? The trouble makers. How are you going to protect your
 glorious revolution from the next one?" - The twelfth Doctor

... The graveyards are full of indispensable men.
