I will donate this to the branch for nothing. All that is needed is 2 Crystals and Filters.

You have to do nothing at all when you come over here except use your own callsign with the suffix /ZL. You can use this for up to a year. Hope to hear you on the air 73 Alan ZL4FM Hi Vic,

Been attempting to contact NZART for a couple of weeks & tonight found your site — hope you can help — the other site seems to be shut down now — I’m planning a trip to South Island at the end of this week — I’m wondering if I need to notify the authorities if I plan to operate — I found a PDF on the MED site that indicates all I need is a copy of my US license & is good for 90 days ?? operation will be primarily limited to 6-2 SSB – or 40m cw or I may bring a HT for repeater/simplex operation — if I bring the radio do I need to have receipt of purchase to show to customs upon entry ???
