About the WIA Centenary
Celebrating the centenary of organised amateur radio in Australia
The celebration is recognition of the foundation of the WIA and the very start of
organised amateur radio in Australia during 1910. It has also helped to focus renewed
attention on the early history of amateur radio in this country through careful research
in a way not previously known to have occurred.

Is your amateur radio station EME compliant?
The operation of all amateur stations must comply with Electromagnetic Emission or EME limits.
An important part of this compliance is an annual Australia-wide audit of amateur licensees.
The ACMA writes to randomly selected amateur stations. The average amateur station will easily comply and requires only a self-assessment of compliance.
It becomes more complicated if you use high power and gain antennas on the VHF/UHF or microwave bands.
All radio amateurs are expected to be aware of these requirements and apply them as responsible users of the radio spectrum.
