As heard on the WIA broadcast – the WIA Board Ballot results are out.

Saturday & Sunday November 1st and 2nd 2025 was the running of the inaurgural QTech Conference run by the Brisbane VHF Group.

An opportunity presented to activate both a SOTA summit and and IOTA island thanks to Murray VK7ZMS over the Australia Day Long Weekend.

SOTA double points day 2024/25.

I found myself again in the NW of VK7 accompanying my XYL who was attending a Harp gathering that was being held in the historic town of Sheffield.

Hayden VK7HH asked me if I would like to accompany him for his first SOTA activation to Collins Cap and I jumped at the chance.

I found myself accompanying my XYL Helen to another Harp Gathering – this time in Launceston at the replica Swiss village Grindelwald over the long weekend celebrating 8 Hour Day.

I found myself in the NW of VK7 accompanying my XYL who was attending a Harp gathering that was being held at the Claude Road Memorial Hall at the base of Mt Roland.

I found myself in North East VK7 with WICEN Tas (Sth) helping with radio communications for a Equine Endurance ride from 9-10 October and planned to stay another night to activate Mt Saddleback on the way back to Hobart.

Well on Monday 31st August I received my ICOM IC-705.
