After the Event
The licensed radio amateurs should be offered out of pocket expenses, such as travelling. They are usually very willing to use their time and equipment if they are kept supplied with suitable refreshments during the event.

  • Complete the Report Forms (which are available in the downloads) and your QSL cards and send them off to the appropriate person as soon as possible. Each year a national report is compiled from all those who return their reports and is available from CHQ. Every station is mentioned but the report is enhanced by illustrations either of QSL cards or photographs. Newspaper cuttings reproduce very badly, so original prints are preferred. Digital images are also welcome. Ideally enclose paper prints with your report and contact details e.g. email address so that the files for the images for publication can be requested. Your comments, good or bad and suggestions and ideas will be very welcome.

  • Thank everyone who has helped you with the station.

  • Girls or Leaders who are interested in learning more about amateur radio may be interested in the Foundation Amateur Radio Licence. The Foundation licence was launched in 2002 and consists of a 10-hour course, run by local clubs. Success in the Foundation course allows limited power use on most amateur bands. Local radio clubs or the RSGB are able to provide information about courses and approved instructors in your area.

  • It is not permitted to ask for money over the air or to say the QSL cards will be sent for the pledge of a donation. Sponsors per contact may be sought prior to the event and you are allowed to mention this on air. The amateur will guide you as to what is permissible.

 
Remember

The station is for the benefit of the Rainbow, Brownie, Guide and Senior Section members taking part. The way the station is conducted will reflect on Girlguiding. Good operating standards are good publicity for guiding - they give Girlguiding a good name and ultimately Guides and guiding will be enriched by the experience.
