Located some 20km North east of the Perth city centre in Whiteman Park, is the home of the Northern Corridor Radio Group. To the members of this club, this is known as “Ham Heaven.” VK6NC is the contest callsign of our group, for further information see our club call VK6ANC.

The station is currently under construction ( well it will never end ! ). The antennas are: A 5 element monoband yagi for 20m, a 5 ele monoband yagi for 15 mtrs, a 6 ele monoband yagi for 10 mtrs, A Hy Gain 3 element monoband yagi for 40m, ¼ wave lattice mast verticals with gull wing radials for 80m and 160m, A 6 element yagi for 6m A 12 element yagi for 2m ssb. A 5/8 vertical for the VK6RWA 10m beacon on 28.264 MHz. Wire antennas on 30m and 40m for weekly WIA News relay broadcasts

Inside we have 2 contest stations in separate shacks, comprising 2 Elecraft K3 transceivers, bandpass filters, Six Pack auto antenna switching system and a pair of Emtron DX-2 HF amplifiers.

Another room houses 2 fixed frequency transmitters for WIA news broadcast connected to wire antennas. The 10m beacon is also housed here.

Other rooms in the club include a workshop, office, meeting hall, full kitchen and an upstairs air conditioned room with two beds for overnight stays during contests.

We welcome approaches from intending overseas visitors and we are pleased to have hosted quite a few international hams and allowed them access to our constantly improving facilities. We acknowledge there have been some problems with a couple of club members recently, but this is all resolved and they are no longer members or involved in club activities. Our present members are often heard activating the club station and we all work at improving the club’s DXCC tally and we are all proud in the knowledge that we are all part of the very best club station in Australia.
