23.01.2022 The VK2RWD 6m repeater is ready to be deployed. VK2RWD 2m has a new bunch of cans ready to go up there with it. Just need some clamps for the tower and some time where all the tech committee is available at the same time. Keep monitoring 53.500mhz on the off chance we are able to deploy it.... As always with NEVARC repeaters, it had a sleep function, so hold the button down for 5 seconds to wake it up.

19.01.2022 NEW ASSESSMENT AND LICENSING PROCEDURES Despite what you may have seen or heard in Amateur circles the basic process has not changed, now that Australian Maritime College (AMC) runs the Amateur Radio Assessments on behalf of ACMA. To obtain an Amateur radio ... licence the following is required: There is a syllabus for each grade of licence issued by ACMA You either do a course of study or self study to learn the required theory and regulations When you feel competent to sit for the assessments you contact an AMC Amateur Radio Assessor to arrange a suitable time or enroll to do the NEVARC Foundation Course which has arranged with AMC assessors to provide assessments after the course The elements of the assessments consist of, Practical, Theory and Regulation relevant to the grade of licence being assessed. The practical is included at no extra charge for all grades. If you are upgrading your licence level the practical is not required if you have passed it before. If you are upgrading from the Standard to Advanced level and have not sat the practical before you will have to sit the practical assessment. (ACMA Requirement) The AMC Assessment process, Contact an AMC Amateur Radio Assessor (this can be done through the AMC website or VIA NEVARC) The AMC assessor orders an exam pack from AMC The candidate sits the assessments. the exam pack is returned to AMC for marking of the Theory and Regulations papers, the practical is assessed by the AMC assessor along with the assessment papers the candidate returns a recommendation for a call sign form and an ACMA application for a licence form. If you are successful AMC issue a certificate of proficiency and forwards your licence application to ACMA. NOTE That as before AMCA issue an email invoice for the license fee, this fee can be paid on line. Once paid your licence detail will come up on the Radiocommunications data base. From there you can download your licence details and print out a copy of you licence. (You are required to display a copy of your licence at your station) ACMA DO NOT SEND OUT PAPER LICENSES ANYMORE. So you might ask what has changed, answer only the AMC paper work and procedures.
