[Elecraft] OT: Australian fires

[Rick M0LEP]

A few days back I heard that the area burned so far during this fire 
season in Australia could best be measured in terms of the size of Wales 
or Belgium.

There are a fair few radio amateurs in VK putting their radio skills to 
work helping with the fire-fighting efforts.

Wishing them all the best of luck.
