Koblenz Twinning

Norwich Amateur Radio Club and the Koblenz Amateur Radio Club in Germany have maintained a monthly radio sked  since 2004 as part of the City Twinning arrangements between Norwich and  Koblenz. The sked is usually on the second Saturday of each month at 10.00am local clock time on 7.135MHz. To assist local Norwich stations to join the sked a listening watch will also be maintained on 145.250 VHF. So if you have difficulty in joining the net please call G3PDH (Malcolm) or G3LDI (Roger) on VHF.
For more information regarding the sked check the club diary or click here.

In April 2006 a 6 day visit was made by Arno DL1PBC and Ralf DM5RS to Norwich during which they toured the city and surrounding countryside as well as visiting NARC. They also took part in various Amateur Radio activities including a radio sked back to their club and other stations in Koblenz.
