Hi Tom,

It was the British Commonwealth Contest. Second weekend in March.

Only stations within the Commonwealth can take part.

BERU stood for British Empire Radio Union.

There was a move to change the abbreviation to BCC but BERU seems to have stuck.

I'm surprised it wasn't even listed, never mind eh!

It's quite fun, but challenging to get a big score from within UK as contacts with Home Countries don't count.

Hope this helps.

Cheers & 73,

Terry, GA3WUX
