The CNR Communications section, is largely made up of some 50 Volunteers manning Coastguard Radios and is on the lookout for new volunteers.

Radio Operators are specifically trained to deal with a continuous stream of radio calls on some 9 different channels.

If you are keen to help, can use a computer, do data entry, and can speak clear English we would like to hear from. If you are fluent in other languages, that also can be of great help to Coastguard. If you live within reasonable distance from Mechanics Bay and are interested in becoming a Volunteer Radio Operator contact Mike on 09 303 9345 or email michaell@coastguard.org.nz
