VK6 History

Home

The VK6 history contained on this page is mainly in relation to what was happening in VK6 prior to the introduction of FM in VK6. In particular the 1950s and 1960s, the time when the main voice mode was Amplitude Modulation.

However what ever information I find in relation to VK6 history will be included.

The historical information is not intended to be detailed but simply provide an overview of Amateur Radio in VK6 with particular emphasis on VHF and UHF.
