I believe all of the event communications are two-way (between two stations), so I couldn't "broadcast" (to no one in particular). The event rules are not exactly clear about what the non-Actuator stations are supposed or allowed to transmit. Usually, for an event like this, stations would exchange a signal report and one other piece of information such as a location or serial number.
While I do have equipment for the amateur radio bands indicated in the rules, I don't usually keep a station set up on a permanent basis due to lack of space and the high frequency of lightning strikes where I live. I'm also in the U.S., so if propagation is poor on 1 October, I may not be able to establish contact with any of the Actuator stations since they are all in Italy. A European amateur station would have a much better chance of contact with the Actuator stations regardless of propagation conditions.
Your signature suggests that you are perhaps in the U.K. If that is the case, we might be able to locate a U.K. individual or club amateur station that would be willing to register on the event web site and make an effort to communicate with one of the Actuator stations on 1 October using your message (with you present, hopefully). No guarantees, but I can make inquiries.
