Welcome to the web-site of the Halifax & District Amateur Radio Society
The Society meets every Tuesday at the Church of the Good Shepherd, New Road, Mytholmroyd, HX7 5EA (adjacent to Mytholmroyd railway station) starting at 19:00hrs. These meetings might include construction, discussion, teaching, sessions on air, Morse training or other activities or, in summer months, /P working.
We also encourage a range of technical, instructional and social events to promote the development of all radio amateurs, be they newcomers to the hobby or the already advanced amateur.
Training at Foundation, Intermediate or Advanced examination level can be provided.
For further details contact: Tony on 01422 822636 or by email on G2UG@hadars.org.uk
Note
We will be holding a Foundation and an Intermediate examination on Tuesday 17th January 2012 and during the next meeting on Tuesday 24th January we will hold the first of our construction workshops - the project is yet to be decided but will probably be a collinear aerial for the 2m band.
On Tuesday 31st January 2012, Raymond G1MSD/9H4RN will be talking to us about "Getting started with amateur radio in Gozo." Raymond will be giving us an insight into the differences and difficulties in setting up and operating a station under different legislation and rules.
We run a clubnet in conjunction with the West Yorkshire RAFARS on Thursday evenings from 19:00-20:00 clock time on 145.350 if the frequency is clear. The net controller is Bill G4IOD.
To help newly-licensed members, HADARS holds a QRP net on Wednesday evenings on 145.400 MHz from 19:30 clock time. Everyone is welcome to join in but is asked to try and keep to 5W maximum although we'll allow 10W if necessary. If the frequency is already occupied we'll try 145.375 and then 145.350.
