Welcome to the Callington Amateur Radio News Page

As agreed at our last AGM I have taken over as webmaster of the CARS website. The site you see now is the first pass and we have more ideas as to what can be included but we felt that is was important to re-establish our web presence before trying to build a site that will meet all the clubs needs. I welcome input from all members of the society and I hope you will find the news page useful. Let me know if there is content that you think should be included on the new website.
