US Callsign and WIA broadcast

We now have a US callsign for the club (KJ7RTA) while we wait for our vanity callsign to be issued. This helps us expand our global reach. I can't wait for our Australian call and US call to work each other!

Over in Australian last weekend the WIA broadcast had a segment announcing our launch! You can find the recording and a text version over on the WIA website. Thanks to @KajiFox for recording the snippet for us.

In other news, we are now working with the IARU to help update some documentation that contains problematic language to be more inclusive. This really excites me as this what the group is all about, making the hobby more inclusive! I'll post more updates as this progresses. If you know of content, or clubs that need similar help or want to help out let us know.

That’s all for now - stay safe
