2016

The 2016 BRL Gathering was held on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th April 2016 at the historic Overland Corner Hotel.

This was a special occasion, as amateur radio gear belonging to Larry VK5LY (who had recently become a silent key) was up for sale.  I purchased a mini palm paddle, whilst my wife Marija purchased an Icom IC751 transceiver.

After a superb lunch, amateurs who were in attendance gave a short introduction on their time within the hobby.  I gave a short talk on the Wireless Institute of Australia (WIA).  Tony VK5FTVR was awarded the BRL Gathering Award.
