Diary

Club Night:  First Friday every month 8pm.

This where we have a speaker with a presentation on a radio related subject. Once a year, by popular request, there will be a non-radio topic. Topics vary but often reflect conversations within the club. Talks are aimed at all levels of knowledge and we ask the speaker to include, where possible, a practical demonstration.

TARGet Nite: Third Friday every month 8pm.

TARGet nite is all about ‘projects’. Some of the options include soldering, construction, fault finding, using test equipment, live operating on HF and VHF. There may be several subjects happening simultaneously in different parts of the hall from CW to DMR.

TARG Net Voice and CW Net: Every 2nd, 4th and 5th Friday of each month.
