News for Northern Ireland – 22 March 2020

As mentioned in the Main News, many clubs have notified us that they are suspending meetings due to the Covid-19 outbreak. As the government advice is to refrain from social gatherings, we have only included the details of regular nets as well as those newly created in place of club meetings. Several clubs have suggested keeping an ear on your local repeater to chat with anyone who is self-isolating or just wanting a chat.

Carrickfergus amateur radio group has postponed weekly meetings until at least after Easter.

Mid Ulster Amateur Radio Club will be closed club for foreseeable future. For more information email muarc.secretary@yahoo.co.uk

West Tyrone ARC has decided to suspend all future meetings in the current climate of the COVID-19 virus. Meetings will resume when it is safe to do so. Social isolation does not mean you have to be lonely: we are at an advantage as our skills and hobby allow us to communicate. More importantly, stay safe follow all the guidance from official sources but don’t forget those who are alone and maybe vulnerable like elderly neighbours etc.
