U995 on air for DMB Jubilee in 2016

The German Naval Association (Deutscher Marinebund DMB) celebrates its 125th anniversary this year.
At the International Museum Ship Weekend (IMWE) members of the "U995 friendship crew" will be active from the submarine’s original radio room in modes of morse code and voice trying to catch other museum ships on air worldwide.
This amateur radio activity takes place on the first June weekend every year.
The operators come from diffferent countries.

Now, to attract attention to the DMB anniversary, we use our amateur radio callsign DL0DMB with the short-period authorized addition 125DMB.
While in contact with DL0DMB, confirmation cards (QSL cards) with 125DMB imprint can be requested.

The jubilee addition only applies from 1 June to 31 July 2016. During this period radio operations will be at different times, but from another location after 6 June.

The annual IMWE will give visitors to the submarine U995 the chance to get an idea of how radio contacts are made.
Of course, they will also learn a lot here about submarines and the DMB.

So feel free to take a look at DMB in Laboe. You’ll always find something to see and marvel at.
