D-STAR Canberra
Icom Australia kindly donated a
new D-Star repeater to the WIA for
installation in the Canberra area. This is a donation to the WIA from
Icom to celebrate 100 Years of the WIA.
The announcement of this donation was made by Takashi Aoki, Manager of
Icom Australia at the official WIA Centenary dinner on Saturday night.
The Canberra Region Amateur Radio Club will be the WIA D-Star Club
responsible for the installation and operations of repeater on behalf of
the WIA.
The repeater will be operational on 2mtrs (Port C) and have the callsign
of VK1RWN. The timeframe for the installation and operations of the
VK1RWN repeater is yet to be determined.
Thank you to Icom Australia for this generous donation
WIA
