"ZL2JA" is the
club's callsign.
"ZL" is the
pre-fix for New Zealand.
The
"2" is for the
"Central District" (Lower North Island, top of
the South Island. There are 4 districts for the main part of NZ)
The
"JA" is the
"personal" part of the callsign, there can
be 2 or 3 letters in this part of the call.
Some special calls have one letter, eg NZART's "ZL6A"

These Web pages are
maintained by Colin, ZL2WM
for the Wanganui
Amateur Radio Society,
Incorporated, Branch 48 of NZART.
The
content in these web pages does not necessarily reflect any official
point of view.
I started this project
around May 1996 when I was president of the Wanganui Amateur Radio
Society, using free web space I had from my Internet Service Provider
at the time, "Voyager
New Zealand Ltd".
The pages later moved to ClearNet's
(Part of now part of TelstraClear)
personal home page server, when I changed ISPs.
In August 1998 we moved to QSL.Net,
a free webpage server dedicated to Amateur Radio run by Al Waller, K3TKJ. An excellent resource of amateur radio related web
pages
In July 2004 we moved to our
very own URL of www.zl2ja.org.nz hosted on ProNet's
servers in Dallas USA. After a very kind offer from Club member Neil Whittington, ZL2MD, director of Peak Technoglogy which owns ProNet.
The URL www.qsl.net/zl2ja/ is still valid and redirects to our server at www.zl2ja.org.nz
ZL2JA's old QSL.NET site is archived & can be found here.
Update page here.
