General Meeting May 2025 (With VarAC demonstration)

A big thank you to all the members who came to the meeting on the Saturday the 24th. We tried the new venue but we will most likely return to the old area.

Thanks to Koos (ZS5KDK) for spending a lot of time and working hard to show us how he got his VarAC system up and running. Quite a few club members a looking forward to testing out this new form of digital packet radio communication messaging.

Thanks to Richard (ZS5RMN) for filming the demonstration and sharing the link: Video Demonstration

We are also looking into a potential YouTube channel for video documentation of the M.A.R.C activities so exciting things are on the horizon.
