REQUESTED HELP FROM RAST (RADIO AMATEUR SOCIETY OF THAILAND)
Since building an antenna provided with the manpower an information we have is not sufficient; on November the 4th 2018 a group of us went to The Radio Amateur Society of Thailand (RAST) to ask for their help building an amateur antenna. We are very lucky to have RAST see our potential, and so they decided to host a test in our school to see if we are eligible enough to use their radio frequencies.
