Folks,

Next meeting is on Thursday 11th June.

Venue: 2nd Woodley Scout Group, Vauxhall Park, Vauxhall Dr, Woodley, Reading RG5 4EA https://what3words.com/bowls.blame.lace .

It's a military themed evening at the scout hut. If you have any military gear you'd like to bring along and show people, that'd be great! No tanks please due to limited parking space. Most likely we will try and string up some form of temporary antenna for whatever band is required. It will be an informal session/natter night.

Since it's an informal session, arrival from around 7:30pm will be fine.

I will bring along the club Icom IC7300 HF transceiver.

We will also make the club spectrum analyser available.

VHF sporadic 'E' propagation is likely so we may try and make available a 6 metre/50MHz antenna. It is also an RSGB 50MHz UK activity contest evening.

Refreshments to be served aplenty as usual. If you wish to partake of tea or coffee then please bring a mug. You are welcome to  bring along your favourite tipple. Adequate supplies of biscuits and (jaffa) cakes will be available.

No zoom this time.
