New Amateur Radio Club for Donegal

Experimenters in the south Donegal area are meeting up
on Monday 6th October in the Mill Park Hotel in Donegal
Town.

The intention is to set up an active club called Donegal Amateur Radio Club in this area.

Jason EI6GRB, Paul EI5GTB and Dessie EI3GWB will meet with other interested radio amateurs who come along on the night.

The intention is to create a forum for existing amateurs to meet and develop our skills. DARC plan to meet on the first Monday of the month but will post information of all upcoming meetings on their website www.radioexperimenters.com.

They also have an open invitation out to anyone who is interested in becoming a radio amateur to come along for more information and help.

At the moment there are a number of people coming along
for information. The club members will provide all the
support needed for them in the process of becoming a
licensed experimenter.

On the night DARC hope to have the numbers required to
become an IRTS affiliated club and will take steps towards this.

Anyone interested, please come along call in on the Sligo repeater (145.7) or simplex 145.365 on the evening of the 6th if anyone needs directions or information.
