Clare HAM Radio Enthusiasts Promote The Wild Atlantic Way

The Wild Atlantic Way is being promoted overseas through a unique initiative involving HAM radio enthusiasts across Clare.

The project, which is funded by Clare Tourism and Clare County Council’s Community & Tourism Department, involves HAM radio operators exchanging postcards depicting scenes of Clare locations along the Wild Atlantic Way with other overseas operators whom they make contact via radio and Morse code.

More than 25,000 contacts have been made from Clare since the beginning of the project in 2017.
