Amateurs remember famous sea battle
Special event amateur radio station VI4SEA — which stands for Sydney Emden Action — is this week honouring the officers and sailors of HMAS Sydney and the SMS Emden, who engaged each other in battle on 9 November 1914 off Cocos Keeling Islands in the Indian Ocean.
The battle was the first action of WWI for the Royal Australian Navy.
The VI4SEA event began yesterday, 1 November, and will continue through to 9 November.
A group of mainly ex-naval or military personnel are running it on bands from 630 metres to 6 metres.
The Deutscher Amateur Radio Club and the Emden Radio Club have promoted the event in Germany, and news of it has spread throughout the world.
