NCRG hamfest 2010

I'm looking at going to the NCRG hamfest this year.

Can't find where it is held, looked on the NCRG website, it said Bassendean ??

Maybe I will drive around looking for antennas in the car parks. :roll:

to be implemented over a five-year period to begin in 2010-11" #-o :cry:

Re: Ship position receiving and sharing

I've watched ships come and go from Alb port, but unless there is more than one ship they don't broadcast AIS info. :?
Maybe its a security issue (Terrorist, etc) Don't know.

Re: Ship position receiving and sharing

Hi Grant

Have given up for the time being as we only get about one ship per. week into port,
My antenna was broken by a tree falling in a storm last week #-o

Might have a go in summer with the grain ships coming to port.
My setup seems to work OK other than the Antenna.

Re: Ship position receiving and sharing

Hi Grant

I'm situated near Albany WA,and have tried this for the last two months and only received 3 ships. :(
The ships only seem to turn on there AIS beacons when they come into the harbor.

As for sharing on the net, I'm only on dialup and not connected very often.
