Club Microwave Activity Day, just confirm your intentions and site.
Reason for change of date, is increasing the interest in the inclusion of VHF-UHF and Microwave activity in the forthcoming John Moyle Field Day. (March 15-16 2025). There is now a specific category for VHF only entries or VHF can be included in the All-Band category.
Several operators have indicated their intention to enter. Our Group is intending to activate VK4IF/p from Crow’s nest in this years event.

This week’s meeting will be the first for the club’s new year.
We have plans for a number of presentations for the evening

Peter VK4EA, our new Vice President, who is also both a director and Vice President of the WIA will be outlining some new proposals from our institute and addressing other important issues for the wider hobby

I will report an update on the Groups forthcoming QTech2025 conference to be held in November and announce news of more VHF-UWave records awarded to group members.

Finally, at the suggestion of Doug VK4OE, we intend to screen a video on the “back-room” technology involved in the succesful recovery of the APOLLO 13 astronauts. It is now 55 years since that mission was aborted en route to the moon after a mid flight explosion crippled the spacecraft.

A formal invitation will be circulated before the meeting

Doug VK4OE will be outlining his “Journey of experimentation and development” with Stefan VK4CSD with their 134GHz systems. Their work has extended their distance record now to 12Km. The National record for this band has reminded at just over 30km since 2022 – its only a question of time and optimum conditions to match that achievement.

VK4EA nice retreat

M A D (Microwave Activity Days) were mainly to allow new and old members to test current or new gear between VHF/UHF Field days. It has been well represented with many operators taken full weekends in far off places, including a few distance records being either nudged or increased.
