The CQWW DX SSB contest, arguably one of the major contests of the year, is almost upon on us. We'll be active as M4F, so if you hear us, give us a shout!
We're still looking for volunteers for the contest, so if you're a current member of FARS and fancy a go, pop down on Saturday or Sunday (or let Andy M0VKG know) and join in!
This past weekend saw us at two events - the Thorne Summer Festival on Saturday and The Trolleybus Museum At Sandtoft on Sunday. Thanks to everyone - both members and non-members alike - who turned up to help or just to visit, and it was nice to see so much interested expressed in both the club and the hobby in general.
Inbetween events, Rick M1EAC and Andy M0VKG found time to work the IOTA contest - results to follow!
The next of our popular Construction Days is coming up in August - Saturday the 13th to be precise. Kevin G3AAF will be offering lessons and advice on surface-mount device (SMD) soldering.
The day is open to both members and non-members, and there will be a small fee to cover materials and refreshments. If you've not visited us before it would make an excellent opportunity to come down and take a look around our facilities!
