NewsWest for Sunday 10th April is the contesting edition, with information about contests coming up soon, and where possible we focus on Australian contests. There's news of Aussies doing well in an international contest, and speaking of contests, we’re launching a survey to discover your thoughts on contesting. We remind you about the efforts of a Victorian Amateur Radio Club to assist Amateurs who lost everything in the floods in the East, and congratulate an Aussie who won an award for his development of digital voice protocols for Amateur Radio. The team today is Roy VK6XV with the Amateur Radio Helpline, Andrew VK6AS, and Mike VK6KMS, and I’m Bob VK6POP, the NewsWest producer. Our website is vk6.net, and the email address is newswest@vk6.net NewsWest invites programme contributions. You can send yours as email attachments to newswest@vk6.net - our editorial policy is that items should be about Amateur Radio, and relating to, or of interest to, Radio amateurs in Western Australia. Originating in Perth Western Australia, NewsWest is produced by WA Amateur Radio News for listeners on-air, on-line and on-demand. Whichever way you're listening, whether you're a licensed radio amateur or not, experienced or just a beginner, old or young, thanks for being here and thanks for joining us.
