Talkgroup Description
Welcome
FINALLY WE ARE BACK !!! Meetings have resumed at the club house, lots of work is being done in order to bring everything back to life after being abandoned during the lock down period, meetings are Tuesday 19:00 until 21:00 and Sundays 10:00 until 12:00 noon, we also have foundation and intermediate courses running (pop in and see us and have a course tailored around you)We also have our club net on 145.300 FM from 19:00 hours on Thursdays.
March 2021 As we move into Spring 21, everyone is hoping for a better year than the last. The lock-down of 2020 meant that KDARS was unable to hold any meetings or take part in any special events. The same isn't true for Radio Ham's. Many hams took the oppotunity to carry out work on their station set-ups, a fact that retailers can atest to with bulging order books. Last year saw the main manufacturers releasing a number of new and some improved products to add to the mix. Technology in the amatuer radio hobby has seen the introduction of more digital modes and devices. With a handheld radio and a link to the internet, you can easily chat to fellow hams around the world and a few going around the world, the International Space Station has an amateur radio setup! So 2021 promises to be a great year for the hobby. KDARS offer training to new members with testing done 'in house'. If you've been out of the hobby for sometime, come and see us at Harrington Aviation Museum and find out what the hobby can do now. Keep watching this space for news and information, or contact by email at : stevelorna@aol.com

LATEST UPDATE
MARCH 2021
RE: 2021 After one of the strangest years I think many of us will ever experience we are now looking forward to returning to some kind of normality hopefully get the club meetings back to where they should be, The club house at Harrington.We are hoping to have a meeting to discuss and put in to place a plan for the Shack, we will be looking for some help to get the shack cleaned painted and hopefully bought up to date ready for some future fun, training and special events.
In other news Kettering And District Amateur Radio Society took part in the Museums on the air again this year and had a superb time with some new operators, Nick M6RUI at the ripe old age of just 14 made many contacts across the world and its great to see him enjoying the hobby at such a young age.
