The Royal Air Force Amateur Radio Society (RAFARS) G8FC is inviting all Amateur Radio Stations to take part in the RAF100 Award Certificate. The aim is to contact RAFARS members and Affiliated Clubs. The Award Certificate will be presented to Amateur Radio Stations who collect a minimum of 250 points.
The Spring 2018 Edition of the QRV Journal is now available in 'Talking QRV' format. See the Talking QRV Page in the Member Area.
Remember that you need to be a current RAFARS Member to register for access to the RAFARS website Member Area. Registration is free for members and passwords are sent by return of email.
The list of current RAFARS members in the Member Area of the website has been updated. The list now has additional functionality with the ability not only to sort by column, but to search across the list. As members will already have full membership details in the RAFARS callbook QRZ, only number, callsign, first name and county are shown in the list.
2018 will mark the 100th Anniversary of the formation of the Royal Air Force. It will also mark the 80th Anniversary of the formation of the Royal Air Force Amateur Radio Society (RAFARS), which absorbed the Cranwell Amateur Radio Transmitting Society that had been founded in 1936.
