Field Day IARU Region 1 - 2022

14 November 2022
The Namibian radio amateurs once again took part in the IARU R1 Field Day (3th & 4th September 2022) in Windhoek.

The venue for the event was on the plot of Robert Schenk (V51RS) where the antennas were set up. Power was supplied by a petrol-powered generator. The radio and the amplifier were made available by the company, Sat-Com. This year the callsign V55V was chosen. Many hams will remember this callsign being used from the farm of Martin (V51W) and was last activated in 2014.

Field Day IARU Region 1  - 2021

20 October 2021
The Namibian radio amateurs took part in the IARU R1 Field Day (4th & 5th September 2021) in Windhoek.

The venue for the event was on the plot of Robert Schenk (V51RS) where the antennas were set up. Power was supplied by a petrol-powered generator. The radio and the amplifier were made available by the company, Sat-Com. Testing of the radios was completed the Friday before Field Day.

With the callsign V51NAM, the club callsign of the NARL, we started punctually on Saturday. Saturday turned out to be extremely difficult, as a strong wind started blowing at the start of radio operations, which only subsided towards the evening. A lot of sand was blown up by the wind, which in turn regularly brought the computer keyboard to a standstill. So the keyboard had to be thoroughly de-sanded from time to time before it could continue to operate.

When the wind finally subsided, the "braai" (BBQ) could begin. While the friends of the Namibian Amateur Radio League and the radio amateurs devoted themselves to the more relaxed part of the evening, radio operations continued uninterrupted. The young radio operators who enjoyed the contest were also given the opportunity to assert themselves at the station. To some hardcore contesters, this led to a bit of resentment, but it was important to us that everyone who dared got the chance to use the microphone.

After a hearty breakfast on Sunday, the last contacts were logged in. The Field Day ended with 444 contacts all over the world. 

V51NAM obtained 10th place in the world for the category and 1st place in Africa.
