Introduction

ALARA was formed in 1975 by a small group of Australian ladies interested in amateur radio. Membership has now grown to over 200, with many Australian members sponsoring overseas YLs into ALARA on a reciprocal basis.
The term YL stands for Young Lady, regardless of age.

Meetings

Meets ON-AIR 3.580+- MHz each Monday 10:30 UTC
(1000 UTC during daylight saving)

The ALARA Contest is always held over the last full weekend of August.

Club Activities & Events

The organization of the YL International 2012 Meet in Adelaide is almost complete. The meet dates are set with delegates arriving on or before 3 May 2012 staying at various venues in Glenelg. The next few days will see us tour Adelaide, Hahndorf, Cleland National Park, Port Adelaide including a Dolphin cruise and a progressive lunch at 3 Barossa Valley wineries.
Those that are doing the optional Ghan tour will join it for either a 7 or 9 day adventure. The 7 day option allows you to leave the tour in Alice Springs after being out to Uluru and the 9 day tour finishes in Darwin. I have created a website which is at www.ylinternational2012.com with detailed up to date information.
The Meet is open to YLs and their OMs. You don't have to be a member of any organization or even licensed but should be interested in amateur radio. Most participants are active on air but that is not a requirement for attendance. If you are interested in attending please complete the online expression of interest form, registration form or contact me directly. My contact details are below. The list of potential participants is growing and at the moment there are 60 who have expressed interest. Registration and deposits are due by September 2011.
I should have final prices for the Adelaide Meet about April but the Ghan prices won't be released until June or July. Current estimates are on the web site. An expression of interest from you would help with planning.
I hope many of you will consider joining us for a great time in Adelaide and possibly on the Ghan.
