A strong effort is being made to increase amateur radio activity in Papua New Guinea and a recent P29 CQ Day is only just the beginning.

Wilfred Kilepak Amai P29PG/VK3DWA initiated the very successful special activity day outside the Parliament Building in Port Moresby. There were plenty of interested on-lookers.

The radio administration PANGTEL is supportive of any steps to achieve a greater participation in amateur radio.

Wilfred says PANGTEL is aware of the Australian licence restructure that occurred in October 2005 that includes the Foundation Licence, but has not yet followed suit.

Traditionally P29 has mirrored the VK licence system, due to the strong relationship between Papua New Guinea and Australia that was established before it gained independence in 1975.

And Papua New Guinea could also have its first ever YL operator with an individual who qualified for a licence in Australia now being considered for a P29 callsign allocation

This is a great incentive for places like PNG with alot of people in remote areas, amature radio band is just the thing to get the message going.

True. great work like Rex and others who are involved in this area.

So true....
Rex has made a new posting about Email on HF Radio. This is most interesting and it can actually work for Papua New Guinea giving the difficulties in communication.
