When we left after the last meeting there was the customary ' see you next week ' - I think we all forgot it was a Bank Holiday. However, we met on the last Bank Holiday ( it was Alex's lecture on valves ). The website has no information to impart. Thus I ask IS there a meeting tonight or not ?. Ian G4UAQ.

Just spoke to Trevor - he had let people know that he would be at the Military Odyssey. So he will only be a possible attendance tonight. However, thanks to Keith we can all get in - So see you folks later !. Ian G4UAQ.

Monday Nights Meeting will be a registration evening for those wishing to take part in training. Primary this is for Advanced training, but registrations will be taken for Foundation and Intemediate. Posted on Behalf of G6ALJ.

Hi All - In all that went on last night I never got the chance to update everybody regarding the Club Net - which used to appear on 145.2125 ( MB7IMS ) at 20:00 on Thursday nights. For the last four weeks no actual current members of the club showed up. Therefore I will not be running a net until there is a proven requirement. However, there will remain a net between Paul M0PMC & myself starting at 21:00 with a CQ call on 145.500 followed by QSY. Keith 2E0KJA is with us most weeks & we have had a real variety of stations joining in from the local area. PLEASE don't think that you have little to say - Paul, Keith & myself have plenty to say for ourselves & you would probably be surprised how often you will will find topics raised on which you have particular experience or just opinions. So, sadly, farewell club net as run from this QTH - But I extend a warm invitation to join us from 21:00. Ian G4UAQ.

Begin forwarded message: From: "keithlbird@..." <keithlbird@...> Subject: MKARS AT BLETCHLEY PARK Date: 11 September 2012 16:00:42 GMT+01:00 Dear all, some of you might have heard about the Milton Keynes ARS being asked to vacate their club meeting venue at Bletchley Park, and that reportedly this came about owing to arrangements with the RSGB and the NRC. I have today received a communication from our RSGB General Manager, who reports that this move was part of a strategic review by the Bletchley Park Trust, the result of which MKARS and other societies that use BP facilities have been asked to relocate, and that this decision was not connected to the RSGB or NRC operation, which continues with the support of many MKARS club members. The GM states that the advent of the NRC had no bearing on the MKARS being asked to move, or of any dispute regarding callsigns. He confirms that the NRC uses the special call GB3RS while GB2BP is registered through Ofcom to the MKARS. It would appear much of this conjecture arose this past Sunday on 40m, but the operator of GB2BP at the time did stress it was a matter outside of the RSGB. I trust that the above clarifies the position, and whilst an upheaval for the Milton Keynes club, is something all clubs have to manage from time to time.

There seems to be a issue with the group that some people are getting a error message when they try to post messages to the group. I have raised a service ticket with yahoo

Hi I am getting emails from friends on Facebook of the form @yahoo.com. The emails are not from my friends but are some kind of scam, I just delete them. This might have been due to a large number of Facebook details falling into the hands of hackers, the same hackers may have compromised Yahoo as well. These kinds of things were almost unheard of 20 years ago, you just don't know what might happen these days. Graham

Attempts to resolve this today have been unsuccessful, though efforts are continuing and it is hoped to get this fixed as early as possible tomorrow. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause. 73 Keith - G4JED RSGB Region 12 DRM - Kent

Hi all quick reminder next fri the 12th, the next Hope and Aid Convoy departs for Kosovo. We have approx 3 trucks to fit radios to. 10 am at Maidstone Services, Truck Car Park Hi-vis Vests Essental Ian 2E0IJH

Hi All Shaun has sent the MP3 file of the Radio interview of Bill Nutton G6NU to me via "YouSendIt". I have now listened to it and it is most interesting and well worth a listen if you remember Bill. 73s Graham G4AXD

John - G6IVP asked me to advise everyone at MYARS of the following: Dear MYARS Friends, It occurred to me that there may be some members, within your club, who knew William (Bill) Nutton G6NU "Naughty Uncle" who was a founder member of the MARTS. As well as founding the MARTS, I believe that Bill played a part in the formation of an amateur radio club in Maidstone. Whether or not this became MYARS I do not know but some members may be interested. I would therefore like to invite anyone from your club to the following meeting of the MARTS on Friday 19 October 2012 at the MARTS QTH (Tunbury Hall) open at 19:30 hrs local time. Please note this open invitation to members and friends old and new. On the evening of Friday 19th October 2012 the MARTS will be privileged to welcome Bill Nutton's granddaughter, Ms Elaine Nutton, who has asked to meet the Club members and has offered to talk, informally, of her Grandfather. As you may know, from the beginnings of the MARTS, throughout until his death 30 years ago early in 1982, Bill was active in Amateur Radio and served as a long time President of the MARTS. It seems appropriate that, in its 90th year, the MARTS will have this opportunity for some of us to reminisce and others to learn about G6NU's life and to share, with Elaine, what we know of his part in the Club's history. 73 - John Burton G6IVP - MARTS Chairman

Begin forwarded message: From: "keithlbird@..." <keithlbird@...> Subject: Amateur Radio Observation Service (AROS) Date: 15 October 2012 20:56:38 GMT+01:00 Dear club colleague, the AROS service is looking to expand its number of observers around Kent to assist in dealing with increased reports of reported infringements, but first, observers need to already be RSGB members and not all applicants will be automatically accepted. The service is confidential and it is very important that the identities of any interested parties must remain totally anonymous and not to announce any decision to become an Observer to other Amateurs. Contact for AROS members is ordinarily only with the coordinator or the deputy. Would you please bring this to the attention of your club members, and if any feel able to do this role and want more details then please ask them to contact the AROS coordinator directly at; aros@... Further information about the service can be found on the RSGB website at; http://www.rsgb.org/committees/honoraryofficers/aros.php 73 Keith - G4JED RSGB Region 12 DRM - Kent
