22 new Radio Amateurs join the ranks

22 new South African Radio Amateurs joined the ranks this week after successfully passing the class B examination held 23 August at examination centres around the country.

Unfortunately 2 of the 24 candidates did not make it this time.

The highest marks were obtained by H J Coetzee who now holds the call sign ZU6H and H F Rolandi ZU5HR. Both achieved 97%.

The youngest candidate was J Ware, 13 years old, now holding the call sign ZU6SP. Congratulations and welcome to all the successful candidates. You are fortunate to have many years ahead of you in which to enjoy amateur radio.

The next ZU examination will be held at the same time on 18 October 2007. The closing date for registration is 20 September 2007.

The examiner, Graham Butler, thanks all who were involved in making the exams possible.
