Talk 26/1/2023

[Ian Hill]

Some of you may remember my last talk on Radio in the Australian outback of some 5 years ago.

Since then I have been working based out of Switzerland for three years  but running a project to put a radio system  (and other things) into the countries of Greece, Albania and Italy on the Trans Adriatic Pipeline with seamless roaming all the way despite significant frequency differences.  I will be talking about the pipeline's challenges of crossing mountain ranges , managing construction during COVID and enjoying the cheap beer of rural Albania as well as explaining the technical issues and fun of putting in a 38 basestation ease of use focussed,  IP connected  TIer III trunked system to include cool stuff like VOIP phone integration, ATEX certified explosion proof radios, and many levels of redundancy for this critical comms application designed for Emergency Response Management in hazardous areas.

See you there I hope. Regards de G8MWK (Ian)

Ian is also doing a great job of creating activity on 4 metres so do give him a shout!

Maybe he'll tell us about M-London ARG '78 GB3LO too...sounds intriguing.

Simon and I were delighted to see that we managed to drain the tea urn last time (it did survive). It will be back on duty ready for what will be no doubt another busy evening! Please bring your own mug.

A supply of many and varied biscuits will be on tap as ever. You're also welcome to bring along your own favourite tipple.

Regards de G8MWK (Ian)
