I totally agree Trevor – we should not allow
“split-membership” conditions to appear.
?
Important news!!
?
Several members have asked if we can participate
in the WAB Olympic Torch special event station on Thursday 19th
July. I have checked with Leslee and the hut is free that day,
so I have booked it for us. Ideally, at least 6 members would
be reqd to provide full cover, but we could possibly manage with 4 at a push.
However, the more the merrier! I will complete the on-line form for one-day
(free) membership of WAB, so any members who would like to help on the day
please let me know! It is our chance as a club to hold a special event station
in our own QTH – don’t miss this opportunity folks!!

Hi
All,
???????????
firstly many thanks to all who came along on Monday to help with the Ant
Mods.? The session was not completed (partly due to a passing thunderstorm
that stopped play for a couple of hours).? This means that we need another
session to complete the work.? Watch this space.
I have read the
press release about the new Foundation Equivalent Exam offered by the
ATC.
This has some interesting implications on the existing structure of
the Foundation Exam as i see it.
I have not compared the Sylibus and i
have no knowlege of their examintion requirements, but i should be expecting the
following from the RSGB;
1.? It should not be necessary to provide 3
full licensed persons as invigulators for future Foundation Exams.
2.?
The same offer of 1 years free membership should be extended to all new license
holders.
These are my own personal feelings but if there is enough
interest among our membership, i will pass them on to the DRM as an official
observation (and request) from MYARS.
