Isle of Man Amateur Radio Society
Advancing Amateur Radio On The Isle of Man
Jon GD0BFN has kindly arranged a visit to the Harbours Division at the Sea Terminal at 19:15 on Tuesday 10 th October.
Due to limited space, we need to know how many people are planning to attend so we can plan the visit.
Please advise John GD0TFG at juanyd@mcb.net if you plan to attend, preferably in plenty of time.
Many thanks
The Committee
The situation at Tromode has not been resolved, so the club will not be meeting there again until advised.
It is with regret that Brian King’s talk on the Mary Rose next week 12th September has been postponed due to unexpected events beyond our control. We will advise when the talk will be re-scheduled. It is not certain that there will be a meeting at all at Tromode.
The Committee
A reminder that Brian King will return to give a talk on King Henry VIII’s battleship the Mary Rose on Tuesday 12th September at 7:30 at Tromode.. We remember with pleasure his presentation on the Racehorse, so it is likely to be popular, come early to secure your seat!
Lovely day so people are going to be out and about today rather than talking radio tonight. Also, it’s MGP practice next Wednesday and several members are marshalling not to mention difficulty in getting down South due to road closures, so there will be no meeting next Wednesday either. 73 all
Due to Tynwald Day activities there will be no club meeting in Ballasalla this Wednesday 5th July.
The Club National Field Day station planned for the mobile shack field has been cancelled.
The Club is participating this coming weekend at Neil’s field just off the Ballamoddha. Bands are from 6M to 1.3 GHz inclusive, generally from 1400 to 1400, although there are some variances (checkout RSGB rules). We hope to be able to cover most bands, so do come along and take a turn to see if we can operate and make contacts over most of the period. The club mobile shack will be the centre of operations but some members have campers. Any questions ring John at 483246 or Matty on manxmat@gmail.com

The IOMARS had a display on the Saturday at the recent Vintage tractor Show in Castletown. There was considerable interest shown by passers-by, and other special event stations were contacted by phone and CW mainly on 40M. After a wet start the rain held off and the members who attended had a pleasant day. (Photo not available)
