Details Get details of the Trust Study Grant		INNOVATION IN AMATEUR RADIO A COMPETITION WITH A DIFFERENCE "Innovation in Amateur Radio" is an eighteen month project by the South African Amateur Radio Development Trust aimed at promoting innovation in Amateur Radio. “While Amateur Radio is one of the oldest and still the most rewarding of all the scientific hobbies, there comes a time when one has to look at innovation, new ideas and new technologies to keep the activities relevant and exciting”. This is the view of Hannes Coetzee, ZS6BZP, a technologist and a member of the Board of Trustees of SAARDT. Hannes was one of the principle architects of the Amateur Radio payload on SumbandilaSat which is attracting wide interest amongst radio amateurs world-wide. The innovation competition is supported by Multisource who has made a HF transceiver, an ICOM7000, available as the main prize for the overall winner. Announcing the sponsorship the CEO of Multisource, Richard Smuts-Steyn, said that innovation in communication technology is an ongoing process. “We believe that the amateur radio innovation project will benefit industry as the enthusiasm of radio amateurs for new technologies will rub off to others.” Go to the Innovation page here	BUILD A LIGHTNING PREDICTOR The Lightning Predictor will give you a warning of an incoming lightning strike and with a little imagination and Amateur ingenuity you can use it to disconnect things before and during a storm.
