Good morning everyone,
With the National Capital Rally now only some 9
days away we find ourselves still short of people to assist.
On the Saturday we need 17 field stations and 4-6
people in HQ and so far we have a total of 15 for the day, Sunday we
need 15 field stations and again 4-6 in HQ and we are a little better off with
18 people registered.
Don't be daunted if you have not done anything of
this nature before, we have numerous locations where all you have to do is watch
the cars go past, write down the car number and time it passed you and then
radio the car number to HQ. It doesn't sound like much but it is of
immense value to the HQ staff as it permits competitors to be tracked through
the competitive stages of the rally from a safety aspect.
This is an ideal opportunity for anyone interested
in Amateur Radio to take part, and if you don't have a licence as yet then we
can use you in HQ as an operator under supervision.
Please consider volunteering your time for either
Saturday 27th or Sunday 28th May (or both). To do so please send an email
to wicen@crarc.ampr.org as soon as you
can so we can add you to the roster.
Thanks to all those who have already volunteered,
it is appreciated.
