New Australian Amateur Radio Magazine

The Radio Amateur Society of Australia has announced the release of a new E-magazine for Amateur Radio in Australia.

The magazine, QTC, named after the Q-code “I have a message for you” will be published every two months.

In this first issue of QTC, we have news and updates about regulations, and information on our 60m submission in response to the ACMA’s consultation paper. There’s a “Getting started” regular column, with this issue covering HF DX-ing.

There’s also a regular column on how you can deal with QRM and RFI in your shack. This month’s feature technical article is on 3-Phase Power Converters.
