UK Amateur Radio Club offers bursaries to SA youthThe Itchen Valley Amateur Radio Club has made three bursaries available for South African students under the age of 25 to become radio amateurs. The bursaries are each valued at R650 and will assist students to enter the October 2007 Class A Radio Examination. The bursaries will be known as the Itchen Valley Radio Club YARP 2007. Bursaries cover the examination enrolment fee and one year's junior membership of The South African Radio League upon passing the examination and R150 towards tuition costs levied by local clubs teaching the RAE. The tuition manual is available free of charge from the SARL web at www.sarl.org.za. The Itchen Valley Amateur Radio Club was formed in 1982 and has 70 members. The club meets at the local scout hall in Chandler's Ford, Hampshire, UK. "We decided that as part of our outreach we would make a contribution to the development of amateur radio in South Africa, particular amongst the younger generation", Quentin Gee said. The bursaries will be administered by the SA Amateur Radio Development Trust. A bursary application form and more details can be found on www.amateuradio.org.za. The closing date for applications is 15 May 2007. Source: The South African Radio League
