SGARS Activities - COVID19 July 2020 Update
Due to the unprecedented impact of the COVID19 (corona virus) on the community, this risk to the health of members and visitors and government restrictions related to groups of people, The St George Amateur Radio Society (SGARS) has taken the decision to cancel our regular monthly face to face gatherings for the foreseeable future.
Good news is our monthly presentations are now being held on line using the Google Meet facility. Details of each monthly presentation can be found above with details of how to virtually attend using video and audio or dial in for audio only.
SGARS members and all amateur radio operators are encouraged to stay in contact with each other. The VK2RLE 2m FM repeater and Echo Link connection, is fully operational and you are welcome to call into our net every Thursday evening commencing at 8.00 PM local time on 146.800 MHz.

Licence Training & Assessment 2020 - COVID19 Update
Obtaining an amateur radio licence is easy with the Foundation entry level accreditation. There is no morse code to learn, you don't need technical qualifications and there are no age limits.
