Amateur Radio Day for the Youth at Stanley Island in Plettenberg-Bay (11November 2023)


 

On Saturday 11 November, the Eden ARC arranged an amateur radio day for young people at Stanley Island in Plettenberg-Bay. Andries, ZS1SMP, and his son Aiden, ZS1ATS arranged the event and members of the Club participated. Andries wrote the RAE in May and Aiden in October. There were between 17 and 20 young people who first had to learn the phonetic alphabet and speech procedures. After some guidance, some of the young people spoke to Christie, ZS4CGR in Luckhoff. Certificates were handed over to all who completed the event and two young people said they wanted to take the ZU exam in 2024. Boerewors rolls and cold drinks were provided and the youth went swimming. Thanks to Andries, ZS1SMP and his son Aiden, ZS1ATS; Gerrit, ZS1KLO; Corne, ZS1COR; Willie, ZS2CC and Eben, ZS1HEB.
