Special Event Station GB1LIM (CHOTA 2015)

The Club ran a special event station at a local Church for Chota (Churches and Chapels On The Air). Conditions weren’t the best, but we had several visitors from the general public and a few Radio Hams.

Beaumarris Expedition 2/3 October 2015

Two of our members, G1HIP and M0ZLK operated from a under used beach close to Beaumarris early in October 2015, and did extremely well (despite M0ZLK managing to burn out a Balun)!
