                           WICEN News

Around  twenty  people turned up at the Annual Co-ordinators Con-
ference at Bathurst last weekend, and a good time was had by all.
A report will appear in a later Broadcast.

This is supposed to be a quiet time for WICEN, but in the past we
have had fire, flood, tempest, and earthquake around this time of
the year; about all that is left is famine (unfortunately, we may
already have this in the form of the drought) and  plague  (hope-
fully WICEN will not be involved in that one!), so do not be com-
placent; keep your equipment ready at all times for a sudden  ac-
tivation.

Events  this month include the Central Coast meeting this Friday,
the Executive Committee meeting on Saturday, the  Hunter  meeting
on  the 21st November, and the closing date for the Newsletter on
30th November.

For next month, WICEN has been requested to assist with  the  NSW
Water  Ski Association Ski Racing Division "Lion Island Classic",
on Sunday 11th December 1994.  Long distance  communications  are
required  from Croppy Point to Laughtondale, and this will proba-
bly involve 80m.  Three stations are needed, from 0900  to  1430,
and  those interested are invited to contact David Ramsay VK2KLX.

WICEN is always looking for members to provide the community with
communications assistance.  Write to WICEN (NSW) Inc, PO Box 123,
St Leonards 2065 for further information, or come up  on  one  of
the  WICEN nets: Blue Mountains on the first Monday of each month
at 8.30pm on channel  7175  simplex,  Hunter  each  Wednesday  at
7.30pm  on  channel  6900,  Northern Rivers each Wednesday at 8pm
around 3610 kHz, Central Coast each Thursday at 8.30pm on channel
7125,  and  Sydney each Thursday at 9.30pm on channels 7150/8275.
If there are any other regular nets then we'd like to hear  about
them.
