New Radio Club seeks Donations

Scouting Ireland has been working for the past few years on getting a permanent radio shack at the National Scout Camp site at Larch Hill near Rathfarnham in the Dublin Mountains overlooking the city.

The aim of this is to promote Radio Experimentation and hobby electronics in Ireland especially to Scout Leaders and
Scouts aged 6 to 21 years.

To date Scouting Ireland has a tilt over wind up tower and a radio shack with lockable presses. A new Club has been set up, called the Larch Hill Radio Club, with the permanent callsign EI3SI.

The club are now looking for radio equipment to put in the shack. There is a full 'wish list' on the IRTS website and items will be collected at the IRTS stand at all future rallies.

Items can also be dropped into South Dublin Radio Club.
So we ask you to clear out your shacks with all items going to a good cause.

For details contact Daniel on 087-7731120.
