Join us on our Sunday nets on 144.550mhz.An informal chat from 1800 local time for approx 1 hour. Please join us. ( Or just listen in ).

On Tuesday the 10th of September we were treated to a visit by Stockport Amateur radio club. They gave us a good overall description of the Fusion System.

Two of the four members who visited us on the night.

A good view of the setup of Stockport Radio. This is also a very convienient mobile unit. As demonstrated by bringing it along for the evening.

Interest was shown by all members, with a view to checking out the viability of our own system.

Many thanks to Stockport for the effort they put in.
