The Association of Radio Amateurs in Umeå (FURA), Sweden, celebrates her first 60 years in 2006. As part of the festivities FURA issues the FURA 60 Award. The award is free of charge and instituted to enhance outside interest in working SM2 and to raise activity within FURA.   

Work FURA stations (calls 7S2AT, SK2T, SK2AT) and/or her members during 2006. A member list is given below. A QSO with 7S2AT gives 3 points and QSOs with SK2T and SK2AT give 2 points. QSOs with FURA members give 1 point. Points are counted once per band. For hams in SM/EU 15 points are required, while DX stations need 10 points. For example, QSOs with 7S2AT on five different bands is enough for the award. 

7S2AT is active on all bands between 23 cm and 160 m, and this call and the other club call will be available in major contests.
