Nets in South Africa
No nets published for South Africa yet. We add them once a national society or regulator source confirms the schedule and frequency.
Times are as published locally. Club and branch nets shift frequency and time more often than national broadcasts — always check the source link before you tune up.
Notes and gotchas
- Times are given in CAT (UTC+2) and do not shift for daylight saving.
- There is no PMR446 or UHF CB allocation here; check ICASA's current radio frequency plan before assuming a licence-free service exists.
