Another successful demonstration of our capabilities when all else fails.

CQARA were invited along to Capricorn Adventist Retirement Village to show the residents what we can provide in the case of an emergency. There was and large group in attendance and judging by the questions from the floor there was real interest.

Portable RMS was operational on VHF Packet and VARA FM.

The day involved a run down on CARV inhouse UHF system as well as HF comms and WinLink capabilities.

Contacts were made to Bob VK4FRC and Geoff VK4AGB at The Hub on CB UHF as well as HF to David VK4IQ in SEQ and Frank VK4FLR in Zilzie. Don Also demonstrated sending an email on HF.
