The West Georgia Amateur Radio Society will hold its first annual “Villa Rica Gold Rush” special event September 8th-10th, 2023 using the W4G Call Sign on 15,20,40, and 80 meters in CW, Phone, and Digital modes. W4G will operate from 12:30Z until 23:59Z September 8th-10th using bands and modes chosen by our individual operators. Operation on all modes and bands, including the 10 meter “bonus band”, will occur on September 9th from 12:30Z until 19:30Z from the original Pine Mountain Gold Mine Operations Building at the Pine Mountain Gold Museum in Villa Rica, GA. Certificates for making a single contact, all bands, all modes, and bonus band contacts will be made available.
When the event begins we'll put up a status page which will include the operators and bands they are operating on, as well as recent contacts. Please note that some operators will manually log their contacts and may not appear on our status page.
