Take Your Handheld to Work day

The South African Radio League is encouraging South African radio hams to take a hand-held to work on Friday 17 August 2006 and to make some contacts during your tea and lunch breaks to show colleagues the communication and technology aspects of amateur radio.

The day is being planned as a publicity event to create interest and educate the general public about amateur radio.

The SARL will prepare a number of media releases that clubs will be able to customise for their local newspapers and radio stations.

Clubs who have IRLP or echolink facilities to link their local repeater are requested to make the link active on Friday 17 August. Please send details to armi@sarl.org.za by 31 July so that a comprehensive list of repeaters with international connectivity can be published prior to the event.
