    NewsWest 20th March 2022

    Posted: 17 Mar 2022 05:23 AM PDT https://wmrct5.podcaster.de/NewsWest/media/20220320-newswest.mp3

    NewsWest for Sunday 20th March 2022 is the history of Amateur Radio
    edition, and we take a peek at what happened in Amateur Radio in years gone
    by. One item today is a brief story about John Moyle, in whose memory this weekend’s Field Day is named. There’s another story, entitled “The Mosquito”, from Mac, VK6MM, reminiscing on his early days in Amateur Radio, and we have the Amateur Radio Helpline from Roy VK6XV.



    This week’s NewsWest is a bit shorter than usual, partly because of the
    early deadline due to preparations for the John Moyle Memorial Field Day.



    Today is the Autumn Equinox, and we should be experiencing better results
    in the higher frequency HF bands. I’m Bob VK6POP the NewsWest producer
