AGM 2023: Tuesday 21 March 1pm – 3pm

Our AGM was held on Tuesday 21 March 2023 at The Collective Hub, 1/33 Johnsonville Rd. Due to challenges in preparing the Financial Report in time for the meeting, given increased trading table sales, the meeting was adjourned and the Financial Report will be discussed at the regular April meeting.

Mike ZL1AXG also revealed the strengths and weaknesses associated with a range of entry-level Chinese handheld radios based on online reviews. This includes VHF and UHF analogue and DMR radios. This was a follow up talk to his coverage of Chinese mobile rigs at the February meeting. A PDF version of the talk is available on request, and was circulated to members.
