Radio Communications,
Raynet was started in the 50's to help with emergency
communications for the user services. These being the Emergency
service's and Utility company's, as well as Local Authorities, St Johns
and The Red Cross. However for practice and to keep active we also do
communications for Local Events around our regions. In our particular
group, We cover the whole of one
of the
biggest counties in Wales, About 100 miles North to South
and 45
miles East to West. Most
of this terrain being
mountains and hills. Mobile phone coverage is very patchy, if at all
for some reason in the ideal locations for Walking, Running and riding
horses.
We cover a number of excercises in the average year, from Walks, Marathons and Motorcycle Enduro's
to Horse Endurance events.
Although we have grown recently, we still do not have a large
membership and often have to call on North Dyfed Raynet to help us with some of our events
Our regular list of
events, include the following :
Brecon Challenge,
With Raleigh International.
2+ Days

Across Wales Walk,

We are allways needing new members, while it helps, not all members need to have an Amateur
Radio License. If you would like to help, please get in touch.
