New National Shortwave Listeners Club

A new club to cater to the needs of shortwave listeners and aspiring radio amateurs was launched during the week.

The club is called the National Shortwave Listeners Club and is running the HAREC online class that commenced on Tuesday last March 30th. This class will run for eight weeks on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

There has been another massive demand for the classes and sixty-five prospective radio amateurs are attending the class on the Zoom platform. Revision nights continue weekly on Wednesdays for the two classes who recently finished their courses and will run until they can sit an examination that will hopefully be held soon, depending on progress made in controlling the Covid-19 pandemic.

The new SWL club will meet on Sunday nights at 2000 on the Zoom platform and will provide a forum where newcomers and others can meet and improve on their experiences in our wonderful hobby.

The club is affiliated to the Irish Radio Transmitters Society, Enquiries about the club, for the time being, can be directed to harectraining@gmail.com
