Queen’s Jubilee celebration

The RSGB is organising radio activity days in conjunction with the various nations in the British Isles. The Isle of Man has a designated callsign. We intend operating from the mobile shack in Neil’s field off the Ballamodha Straight on Friday June 3 which is the public holiday for the Jubilee. It coincides with Mad Sunday weekend of course, hence on private land with no spectators. Club members are of course welcome to participate or just attend, if only for a while. Also, we are finishing the fitting out of the shack tomorrow (Saturday) afternoon in preparation. Anyone who would like to come along for an hour or two to give a hand will be welcome. 73 John
