Information from Dieter, DK2PU:
Special event station DA200FWR. Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen (born on 30 March 1818 in Hamm/Sieg) would celebrate his 200th birthday on 30 March 2018.
To mark this occasion, the Altenkirchen chapter uses the special call sign DA200FWR with S-DOK 200FWR.
The project is being carried out in recognition of Raiffeisen\'s life\'s work, as one of the fathers of the idea of a cooperative that today encompasses the entire world and has been recognised by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage. In addition, a beautiful trophy will also be issued for which connections with DA200FWR as well as with the club and individual stations of the participating local associations in "Raiffeisenland" will be needed.
The conditions and the curriculum vitae - in 15 languages - of F. W. Raiffeisen on QRZ. COM/DA200FWR can be read in four languages.
