The early Blackwood Radio Club
Origins of the Adelaide Hills Amateur Radio Society
The Lower Murray Radio Club
The Lower Murray Club, commencing in 1976 in the town of Murray Bridge, is now part of the Adelaide Hills Club. However the amateur radio history in Murray Bridge goes back to 1924. Click here to engage the Murray Bridge Amateur Radio Story.
The Wireless Institute of Australia (WIA) has been a representative of Amateur Radio in Australia since 1910. (It is the oldest Amateur Radio Society in the World.)
Listed here is an early history of the South Australian Division of WIA from 1919 to 1980 written by Marlene Austin VK5QO/VK3EQO, and originally published in 1985.
Also listed here is additional history of the South Australian Division of WIA from 1980 to 2004 and prepared in 2013 by Lloyd Butler VK5BR,
