Hi Simon,

 

I won’t be down at the club tomorrow night but guess you or John will make an announcement re VHF FD Antenna testing so I’ve copied the address details below;

 

Sunday 7th May, 10am onwards;

Lever's Piece Farm, Ryehurst Lane, Binfield. RG42 5QZ 

And thanks to Ted for the What 3 words location for the entrance; proven.bleat.point.

 

We’ve got 2 brand new antennas to assemble and tune for 2m & 70cm and we’re hoping to set up 3 masts with rotators and mount the antennas & feeders so we can finalise the station setup we want to use on the actual Field day weekend so the more people the better.

My XYL will do some sausage rolls around lunchtime and so please email a quick reply if you’re planning to come along so we’ve got an idea of numbers. So far I have;

Simon   M0ZSU

John      G4RDC

Mike      G4CDF

 

Anyone else who’s planning to come please let me know if possible and I’ll add your callsign onto a sausage roll. Any questions, my mobile is 07831-453578. 73, NK

 

Kind Regards,

Nick Kerner

Hi Min,

Me too, forecast looks better for tomorrow so fingers crossed they're right. I've cleared space inside the barn for building up & tuning the antennas though just in case. I think we'll put the masts up on the concrete aswell as the field is a little damp. See you tomorrow, cheers, NK

Kind regards,
