What was it like to be a radio operator at sea back in the good old days?

Col Christiansen VK2BCC will entertain those in attendance with some reminisces about his time as ship's radio operator plying his trade with a Morse key on ships on the high seas. He will also describe the several winters that he spent in Antarctica as a communications officer.

Come along, hear Col's story, catch up with fellow amateur radio operators,  check out our disposal items for a bargain and enjoy tea, coffee and a biscuit.

The St George Amateur Radio Society monthly gatherings have returned to "in person" format at our meeting rooms, Donnelly Park, Connells Point (near South Hurstville). All members and visitors will need to sign-in. Full details available here.

Doors open at 7.15 pm for a 7.30 pm start.
