NATIONAL NEWS FOR WEEK COMMENCING OCTOBER 10 2021
IN OUR 26th YEAR OF NON STOP NEWS

THIS NEWS IS HAPPENING NOW

Implementation of 2x1 contest callsigns

ACMA recently conducted a survey seeking the views of the amateur radio community on allocation arrangements for 2x1 callsigns.

After considering the feedback from the survey, the ACMA has recommended to the AMC that it starts allocating 2x1 callsigns based on the following arrangements:

Callsigns are issued exclusively for amateur radio contests limited to amateur radio clubs and holders of an Amateur Operators Certificate of Proficiency Advanced. 2x1 callsigns will be issued for a period of 12 months.

The allocation process will commence at 10 am, 13 October 2021.

THIS & MORE IN THIS EDITION OF NEWS FROM THE
WIRELESS INSTITUTE OF AUSTRALIA

PROGRAM RECORDED IN BRISBANE, OLYMPIC CITY 2032.
Peter VK4NBL joining you.

Well, at least I'm here VIRTUALLY, but physically in the beautiful Murray Bridge part of South Australia. But who cares where we are, when there's Amateur Radio??!!

DMR is Digital Mobile Radio, a fantastic World Wide Amateur Radio version of RF technology.

If you haven't tried it yet, you're in for a big surprise!

Sure. It sounds different from AM, SSB or FM ... but it's a PERSONAL CONTACT thing, when you can hear what the other guy sounds like, rather than having to read a "fist" to interpret the meaning
behind the dits and dahs, or the intriguing sounds of FT8 and those other sorts of digital modes.

Last Tuesday evening we ran the 3rd anniversary of the Australian DMR net. There were 75 check-ins and I would like to thank every-one who took the time to call in. They were there, from all around Australia!

Don't forget ... we're here on Talk-group 5 EVERY Tuesday night.

Come and join us on Australia's biggest Digital voice network.

It'll be a real pleasure for all of us to hear YOU call in, and join the fun!

Peter, VK4NBL, for WIA National News.

Good morning to all listeners of the WIA Broadcast.

This is WIA President Scott Williams, VK3KJ and wherever you are in
Australia or in fact overseas, I hope this announcement finds you safe
and well in these very challenging times.

I will be short and sharp this week with just a couple of quick messages on behalf of the WIA Board.

Firstly, the Board has confirmed that the 2021 Annual General Meeting,
to be held on or around May / June 2022, will be held next year as a
virtual event. In addition to the AGM, a proposal has been submitted
to hold a half day online or virtual conference to replace the
proposed face to face conference. The Board believe the online
conference represents a wonderful way for the Amateur Radio community
to re-engage and enjoy some topical presentations.
It is the view the Board that there is considerable uncertainty with
the COVID overlay and this makes planning in advance very difficult.
Please look out for announcements in the near future and we will be
sure to promote the event through all the normal mediums.

A couple of weeks ago you heard from WIA Director, Peter Shrader,
VK4EA about the WIAs new social media guidelines. This has been
approved by the Board and we are just planning the role out of thisas we speak.

For those that are on social media, it has again been a very
challenging few weeks with some wonderful content posted, but also unfortunately, some content and threads of conversation that just
should of never have found its way to the screens of many readers.
The WIA encourages the use of social media as a great medium to
communicate in different ways to different audiences. We welcome
constructive, respectful engagement that promotes open and friendly
forums. We do NOT support any content that is posted that defames,
vilifies, is offensive or unlawful.

In regard to the WIA social media channels, these will be moderated
with any comments deemed by the administrators to be inappropriate,
or not in the spirit of Amateur Radio to be removed.

On a final note, it was wonderful to see so many people on the air
over last weekend for the SSB Oceania DX Contest. I understand there
has been a record number of logs already received with over 1000 logs
already submitted and they continue to be uploaded. There was also
over 100 DXCC countries active. Operators across the country reported
some favourable conditions with contest station VK4KW, reporting some
great propagation on 10m to the East Coast of America. It was also
great to see so many new operators competing for the first time.

Dont forget that this weekend is the CW Oceania DX Contest, which
concludes at 06.00 UTC on Sunday. So, all those CW operators, make
sure you jump on air and support the contest.

Thats it for me this week, and I am going to jump on air and try and
make a few contacts myself.

Stay safe and well and best wishes,
Scott VK3KJ
ACMA release Five Year Spectrum Outlook 2021-26

WIA report the Australian communication regulator the ACMA has released the Five Year Spectrum Outlook document covering the 2021-2026 financial year

REGION ONE

UK Foundation practical assessments

Following a meeting of the RSGB Examinations Standards Committee at which Ofcom was represented, the current mandatory Foundation practical requirements are, with immediate effect, permanently removed.

If clubs want to retain a practical element of training to support the learning of their candidates, either as demonstrations or hands-on, they are strongly encouraged to do so.

For the full announcement please see the RSGB exam announcementsweb page: tinyurl.com/y7rhpwr9

IRELAND

The current agreement with the IRTS for the setting, organising and
correcting examinations for the Harmonised Amateur Radio Certificate
is due to expire on the 21 December 2021. In advance of the expiry of
the agreement, ComReg intends to publish an invitation to participate
in a tender process for parties interested in administrating the
HAREC examinations in Ireland and it will be published on ComRegs website in due course.

The ComReg document gives the figures for the number of exam candidates for each year ending June 30:
2017: 43
2018: 472019: 50
2020: 602021: 4

The IRTS paper-based 60 question HAREC exam is only held twice a year
and typically has a pass rate of around 65-70%. In previous years
some amateurs from the UK have travelled to Dublin to take the exam
as all HAREC certificates are recognised by Ofcom and the holder is
therefore eligible for a Full UK callsign.
In further education news from Region One, Norway defers replacement
of paper-based ham radio exams

Norwegian Communications Authority Nkom has announced that radio amateurs will have to continue doing paper exams for a while longer and the questions in the exam will be increased to 60

Norway has only one class of license and it permits 1 kW output. Their HAREC exam used to be the shortest among CEPT member countries at just 28 question. A few years ago this was increased to 35 and now Nkom has announced it will be 60 questions.
REGION TWO

New VP8 licenses for use in the former Falkland Islands Dependencies
have not been available for some years now, causing considerable
difficulty to major DXpeditions and others wishing to operate from
those remote regions, including the recent VP8PJ South Orkneys operation.

However SouthGate news report a major break-through and Ofcom has finally authorized the use of a new prefix for these former Dependencies.

The new prefix is VP0 (Victor Papa Zero) and once legislation is enacted, it will be applied to the two British Overseas Territories of South Georgia & South Sandwich Islands and the British Antarctic Territory. The existing VP8 prefix will then apply
exclusively to the Falkland Islands only.

The new VP0 prefix will apply to the following DXCC entities:

1. British claimed sector of the Antarctic mainland, including
Antarctic Peninsula & nearby islands
2. South Orkney Islands
3. South Shetland Islands4. South Georgia
5. South Sandwich Islands

It is proposed that the Falkland Islands Communications Regulator will administer these licenses on behalf of the governments of British Antarctic Territory and South Georgia & South Sandwich Islands

WIRELESS WEATHER WITH VK3FFF

Earth can make its own auroras without solar storms

Researchers from UCLA have discovered a new way Earth can make auroras.

Electron beams shooting up from our planet's atmosphere sometimes paint the sky green without the aid of solar activity. These "geo-auroras" can appear even when the sun is absolutely quiet.
Full story
tinyurl.com/4mf8d5a4
In other Wireless Weather News we learn Solar Cycle 25 continues to over perform.

Sunspot counts for Sept. 2021 were the highest in more than 5 years
and, for the 11th month in a row, the sunspot number has significantly exceeded the official forecast.

The sun has a mind of its own though.

Higher-than-expected sunspot counts suggest a stronger cycle, with a
peak occurring in late 2024 instead of mid-2025. This is good news for
aurora watchers, but maybe not so good for the Internet.

The goal is to have one group or individual operator at as many Parks On The Air as possible. The K1USN Radio Club hopes this will become an annual event. This is a recreational radio event, not a contest, so no logs will be required to participate.
Summaries of activity are encouraged, however, and a post-event link will be available.

SOTA SUMMITS BECOME A DOG'S BEST FRIEND

This story from Amateur Radio NewsLine is about Summits on the Air
and the dogs who love summit activations as much as their humancounterparts do.

It originates from Europe so before we in VK start taking our "pooches" hiking remember many a park summit is out of bounds to our
furry friends. (and sensibly so).

Ed Durrant DD5LP "Loves Puppies" tells us of their adventures.

A recent photo gallery called SOTA Dogs on Summits was so popular when it first appeared online on the SOTA Reflector website that a second edition surfaced this year:

This new pack of SOTA dogs includes Juri and Vinnie, with Vinnie the elder statesman of the mountain for Martin OE3VBU. There's Zoe, avid
radio hound of Jeffry KX6I, and even a SOTA puppy in training,
introduced by proud radio buddy Stuart KB1HQS.

The mountain goat of the bunch turns out to be a mountain sheepa lamb named Norit, born last May and rejected by his mother. Norit
says "baaaa" instead of bark but he and his friend Jon EA3BV are likely to have some summit adventures that are likely wild and ... woolly.

I'm Ed Durrant DD5LP, that's DD5 loves puppies.

Same as when Disaster strikes.

Amateur radio operators all around the USA including central Illinois
set to for the annual SET session, a practice session demonstrating
how to keep up communication when disaster strikes.

Peoria County's Amateur Radio Emergency Service - or "ARES" - held the session in Alpha Park. There, they communicated with other radio operators all around the country.

Organizers say if cell phones, landlines, and the internet go down during a storm or something worse, radio is the next best option - and a great way to communicate with the American Red Cross and other rescue agencies.

"This gives us an opportunity to get out and get some real-world practice out in the field with our equipment and our people - practicing various techniques that are used," emergency communicator Rich Holtman said.

Holtman added radio was especially important during the November 2013 tornado that hit Tazewell County, as it allowed for much quicker communication with the Red Cross when phone systems were out of commission.

Over in the USA, 2 years ago, Kanushi Desai, always an inquisitive
youngster, decided to join the Jefferson Middle School Electronics Club. The then sixth grader took an immediate liking to the activity.

She started learning more and more and soon got her older sister, Jashvi, interested. She started learning from Kanushi.

Today the pair of sisters are proud owners of amateur radio licenses after passing both the FCC Technician Class and General Class Amateur Radio exams.

Kanushi is 13 and now an eighth grader at Jefferson.

Big sister Jashvi, 18, is three weeks into her freshman year at Princeton. Both credit Dennis Klipa, a community volunteer in the local Ham Radio Club, for piquing their interest in a hobby they plan to continue well into adulthood.
