Radio Tracking

posted Oct 11, 2011 5:44 PM by Jim Tittsler
AREC have been asked to have trained operators available for using radio location equipment used for tracking lost persons. A small radio transmitter is attached to people who are likely to wonder off and get lost. Each transmitter is on a different frequency and Search and Rescue have purchased a tracker.

All interested persons are welcome to meet at Anzac Park at 1.30pm on Sunday 30th of October to try out the tracker and run tests.

The club also hopes to run some hidden transmitter hunts now the weather is finer
