QNEWS BROADCAST JANUARY 24 2010
Welcome to QNEWS from VK4WIA. I'm Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP and this one is
for you mate!
One of the things that brings most of us together in a recreational
pastime is feeling part of the big picture, knowing what is happening
and sharing our interest with others. As part of the WIA efforts to keep
us abreast of happenings, Graham, VK4BakerBaker, puts together
National News and QNEWS.
With QNEWS, we depend on the audio feeds that come from our clubs and
listeners. The ease of anyone that has a multimedia computer to write,
record and submit items for QNEWS has never been as great as it is now.
There are 30 Qld clubs affiliated with the WIA and listed in the
Centenary Edition Callbook. We know that things happen to suit local
needs, and a friendly voice speaking about a local event can let your
club members as well as the other listeners know what is happening. When
you think that about half to 2/3 of a page of typing is all you need to
fill 1&1/2 to 2 minutes of recording then here is a painless way of
getting the news out.
Think about this, if most clubs worked on sending about 4 news items
each year, this would guarantee at least two club items each week. Our
friends at Townsville keep their flag flying every week. With other
regular contributors, this is not a big ask to spread the word.
We have listeners who depend on what they hear in the weekly news
broadcast to keep up with their hobby. There are others who appreciate
knowing that other amateurs are enjoying the hobby too. When news that
can benefit us all, such as a grant scheme, a special event station or
award, is announced, don't be shy....do what you do with your other
friends....spread the word.
Think about some-one you would like to know about your news item,
some-one you can't eyeball or 'phone and picture them in your mind's eye
as you email QNEWS and say, "This one is for you mate".
