Apologies for the tardy posting of this months Oxtales on the website, but if you haven’t received it via mailout it’ll have been worth the wait! We held another successful ORARC Field day and the work at the new Telegraph Point repeater site continues at full steam. Thank you as ever to all contributors, proofreaders plus our tireless editor, John VK2AYQ.

We’ve got a bumper issue of Oxtales for you this month with ground being broken at our new Telegraph Point repeater site! Bob VK2ZRE has written a fantastic article on everyone’s new favorite toy (which they’re probably still getting their head around) – the VNA! Also read all about our field day plans – it’s just under 3 weeks away at the time of writing (so it’s practically tomorrow)! Eternal kudos to all contributors and the man who makes it happen – our Editor, John VK2AYQ.
