Welcome to the Newswest Bulletin for Sunday 21st October 2018. This edition is aimed at new hams. That of course isn’t just Foundation Licencees but also those who have gained increased privileges and responsibilities or who are returning to the hobby after an absence. If you have been or are taking part in Jota, thanks from the AR community for your volunteering and commitment. We regularly hear of hams whose interest in our hobby was sparked by engagement with the “wireless” during the Jamboree. We have an interesting mix of material to educate and inform you, including a couple of interesting interviews with Amateurs. Some tips and hints for new Amateurs, news from the VHF Group and HARG, and the VI6PAX activation. Alternate download site here https://www.dropbox.com/s/94osgls6b2shbmy/20181021.newswest.mp3?dl=0
