IR-DX Fieldday 2025
We invite you (IR members and non-IR members) to our annual IR-DX Fieldday 2025.
This year’s fieldday will be organised from Friday 1 August to Sunday 3 August in Switzerland.
Like previous fielddays, you will have a fun and relaxing weekend with or without radio and some face-to-face chatting, enjoying the beautiful surroundings and BBQing in the evening.
Contact us in advance, so we can advise you which route you can take the best to avoid the highway if you come by car, so it is not necessary to buy a special vignet, which needs to be bought, when you take the highway in Switzerland!

13IR249 Ralph – silent key
Today we have to tell you that our member and good friend Ralph also known as 13IR249 from the city Roth in Germany, suddenly passed away while he was in Asia together with 13IR102 Lars.
Just out before he was active on Asia tour activating several divisions for the 11 meter community.
Many of us know Ralph from the 1980s, when many people started with 11 meter DX.
Ralph was a fine operator and the polite man. The world will miss him.
Our condolences and thoughts are with his family and friends and also to Lars, 13IR102 who was together with him doing an Asia tour.
Rest in Peace Ralph !
