It’s John Moyle weekend, and it would be safe to say you’re chasing those last few contacts, packing up, or recovering from the Field Day operations - depending on when you’re listening to this broadcast here in VK6, or around Australia this broadcast:
Bob is still out on the road so he’ll be calling in from the Eyre Peninsula. We have various reports following conversations with the ACMA and the IARU.
Onno brings us foundations of amateur radio - talking loss - and some of the associated truths - or not.
It’s New Hams week, so we celebrate new licenses here in VK6, and a bigger set of stats. Bob encourages us to spend up - and in commemoration - we bring you a special recap on how one of our great VK6 amateurs, now silent key, got started and the journey he went on from there.
There’s a few reminders, and well put it over to Roy with Helpline
