Australian HQ stations

G’day John

As per the rules, here is the current (and probably final) list of Australian HQ stations. We are still desperately trying to find someone to operate VK7WIA, but the chances of doing this by the deadline are looking poor.

The HQ stations are as follows:

VK2WIA (operated by Tommy VK2IR)

VK3WIA (operated/overseen by Lee VK3GK)

VK4WIA ( operated by the Sunshine Coast Amateur Radio Club overseen by Trent VK4TS)

VK5WIA (operated/overseen by Grant VK5GR)

VK6WIA (operated by Peter VK6RZ)
