NewsWest for Sunday 11th September 2022 is the contesting edition, and we’ll talk about contests coming up in the near future, and provide a bit of information that newcomers to contesting may find useful. There’s an entertaining story from Mac, describing his exposure to Amateur Radio contests when he were a wee lad, and I ponder on the place of world politics in Amateur radio. It’s my delight to introduce two new additions to the NewsWest team, and you’ll hear from both of them in today’s episode.
