RSGB'S DMR PROJECT BEGINS AGAIN IN UK SCHOOLS

Just as the schools are back throughout the UK, so is the DMR Project launched by the Radio Society of Great Britain.

The initiative was introduced last May to loan equipment to schools to enable students to feel comfortable with making QSOs.

Now it is back as the schools and colleges reopen in September. The society's Outreach Team is working with teachers and, in partnership with the Radio Communications Foundation, they will pay licence exam fees for nine teachers who wish to set up ham radio clubs at their schools. Additional details are available from Chris Aitken MMØWIC, the youth chair, who can be reached at youthchampion dot school at rsgb dot org dot uk.
