Steven VK2BOS advises that they are reverting to text based HF Digital
Modes for the Monday evening net. They are primarily using the
various modes supported by fldigi [read: F L DIGI].

On Sunday May 5 WICEN is supporting the Memory Walk & Jog run by the
NSW branch of Alzheimer's Australia over the "Bay Run" course in inner
western Sydney. This will be followed by similar events in Newcastle
and Wollongong later in the year.

WICEN's sister group within the VRA, the Bushwalkers Wilderness Rescue
Squad is running their famous 4 Day Comprehensive Remote Area First
Aid over the weekends of 6 & 7 April 2013 and 20 & 21 April 2013.
This course includes standard office-type first aider "Apply First
Aid" and two further competencies, and satisfies both the new first
aid standard for rescue operators and Workcover requirements. Basic
courses are also available.
