Improving Amateur / Ham Radio Club Websites

Essex Ham have released a Guide containing some suggestions on improvements which might be made to club websites. It certainly provides food-for-thought 

Many Amateur / Ham Radio clubs suffer with a poor online presence, including outdated, broken, poorly-designed and invisible websites that do no favour to the club's image or attracting new members.

To help give clubs a greater understanding of some of the common problems with online promotion, Essex Ham have produced a guide - http://www.essexham.co.uk/guides/ImprovingClubWebsites.pdf

New Radio Initiative Website

A bi-lingual website is now available for the New Radio Initiative, a group who are working to develop a new operating system for amateur radio equipment. 

The site, available in German as well as English, gives an outline specification for handheld, mobile and base station rigs of the future.

“Looking forward to receive a radio where I can program the modulation (FPGA) and add “apps” for comfortable operation.”

— Michael Kastelic OE1MCU, Vice President ÖVSV
