On Sunday, 15 March 2009 the North Coast Region Specialist Communications

The Sunshine Coast Amateur Radio Club's WICEN Caravan (VK4WSC) and members
of the North Coast Region (EMQ), Specialist Comms Group have been providing
communications support to the clean up operation, based at Kawana Surf Club,
for the past week, and expecting to continue until at

as well as 30+ SES handheld radios to service the operation.
