Tipperary Amateur Radio Group, along with members of AREN are providing communication assistance over the Galty Walking Festival weekend, beginning tomorrow June 2nd. If you’re at a loose end over the weekend and feel you could have something to contribute, please listen out/call on our simplex frequency 145.450. TARG/AREN has been officially thanked for our participation by the walks’ organising commitee.

The event will also be the initial field trial of the GAISS project, so a very interesting weekend is in store.

If you’re coming to the walk and you have some spare radio equipment/antennas sitting there, bring it!
It’s better to be looking at it, than looking for it!

Hope to see you all there – Registration at “The Foot” bar at 9am, but we’ll be setting up radios etc some time before that – tune to 145.450, this will be monitored.
