Sunday Bulletins<br />

PEARS bulletins are transmitted on Sundays immediately<br />

after the SARL English transmission, i.e. at about 08:30 on<br />

7098 kHz as well as the 2 metre linked network that<br />

provides from Butterworth to George and up to the Free<br />

State and their environs. PEARS 7098 or 3640 kHz<br />

transceiver facilities are also remotely linked as needed. In<br />

addition, the SARL's 40 m operations on 7082 or 7066 kHz<br />

or Hamnet's 7070 kHz can be remotely patched to the 2 m<br />

network in receive only mode or with full transceive<br />

capability for interactive events.<br />

A recorded rebroadcast of the bulletin takes place on the<br />

Eastern Cape Linked Repeater Network every Monday night<br />

at 20h00 courtesy of various volunteers who rotate this<br />

duty.<br />
