The Eden Radio Club once again created on air and off air activity this past weekend. The Eden Radio Club with Corne ZS1COR at the helm setup a field station on the 1 October 2022 at the Botanical Gardens in George. The station was active from 07h00 to 11h00 SAST. The aim was to create on air activity as well as to introduce amateur radio to the general public. Once again the club was successful in their aim for this event. Several members of the public visited the station. Keen interest was expressed by Leon Kapp in amateur radio. He spend quite some time at the station observing and asking questions. Let's hope that he will join the amateur radio ranks in future. Other visitors included Willie ZS2CC and Schalk ZS1LL. Another special visitor was William Burgermeister KG7XV all the way from the state of Oregon, USA. It goes to show that radio amateurs all over the world have a mutual interest and language no matter where you hale from. The club chairman Corne ZS1COR would like to express his gratitude to all those who visited the station. Your interest is highly appreciated. Corne would also like to invite any radio amateur from any part of the world to visit the next event if at all possible. Further details will be made available soon. The club would like to invite members of the public, electronic enthusiasts and radio amateurs to visit these most enjoyable events.
