World amateur Radio Day takes place on 21 September and IARU Region 1 is planning several activities to mark the event. This year's theme is 'Amateur Radio - A National Resource'. A special 55 minute broadcast will be made on short waves on the day and it will be sponsored by Sentec, the common carrier for broadcast signals in South Africa. The programme will be transmitted three times - at 1300 on 17.865MHz, at 1800 on 9.530MHz and at 2100 on 9.595MHz. Those who hear the broadcast are asked to send reports to: IARU Region 1, Hamradio, Hillcrest 3560, South Africa.
