The Royal British Legion has asked the society to join them in the Island at war commemorations over the weekend of Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd August 2015.

As in previous years they would like us to provide a ‘live on air’ demonstration station/s and an exhibition of older wireless equipment.

We need your help as radio operators and the loan of any interesting period equipment.

If you would like to get involved in any form please get in touch as soon as possible.
