CTARC Seventieth Anniversary - 2015

Where were you in 1946? Some (most) of us were neither born nor thought of in that year. But that was the year that the Cape Town Amateur Radio Centre, in its original incarnation, was founded. This date corresponds with the end of the Second World War and the return of thousands of soldiers back to South Africa. Many of them were former  signalers. Some of them had even acquired their amateur radio licenses before the War.

In 2016, the Cape Town Amateur Radio Centre will commemorate seventy years of it's existence, making it the oldest Amateur Radio club in South Africa.

To celebrate this significant milestone, we would like to do something rather special, at the end of this year. The CTARC committee is considering various options, and invites members and interested parties to contribute their own ideas.

Please contact our chairman, Rob / ZS1SA or our secretary, Anne via e-mail with your suggestion/s.
