Mauritius Amateur Radio Society

Mauritius Amateur Radio Society MARS represents the interests of the amateur radio operators and shortwave listeners of Mauritius There were yearly meetings and get together but no dynamism.

MARS was registered with the Registrar of associations in Mauritius and was very dynamic. However after independence in 1968, many of the expatriates left Mauritius and there was a lull in thr activities of MARS. After a period of reduced activity, the society was deregistered from the Registrar of associations and existed only as a non-registered body. On the 1st December 1994, a new constitution

was drafted and MARS was registered again with the Registrar. Since that time MARS is back on the rails again and there are yearly general Meetings and other activities to help the younger generation to get a licence. However it is becoming harder and harder to get new blood to the hobby because many young prefer the internet chat and surfing, and they also do not have time to study technical subject and sit for exams. But we do try to expose ham radio every time we get a chance and get new comers to the hobby.
