FRS Summer Splash to take to airwaves next month : Dear FRS Friends! The time has finally come... After a (too...) long break, FRS-Holland will return to the airwaves in July/August. A combination of circumstances forced us to be inactive for more than 6 months. We do regret this inactivity but with new energy we will soon return to the shortwave airwaves.
