Club Diary for 2010

February 13th: A Saturday, for our Xmas lunch. Following last years success, this will be a fish and chip supper amongst friends at the usual venue.
Bring you own booze etc, though tea and coffee will be available as normal. ** Xmas Lunch Posponed due to the weather**

March 1st: A talk by Matt, M1CMN on a subject to be announced (that means he doesn't know yet! :-) ). At Earlsgate, 19:30.

April 12th: Return of the Folkestone Flashers! I'm not sure yet where this will be held, so this will be announced later, and no, it's not what you
think. We will be using Denis's signal lamps.

May 10th: Meeting at Earlsgate as ususal.

June 7th: Weather permitting, we will meet at Crete Road West, overlooking the Channel Tunnel terminal. Bring rigs, antennas and refreshments. Listen
out on GB3FK from 18:00 for confirmation in case of inclement weather. If wet, we will meet at Earlsgate.

July 5th: Weather permitting, another portable evening, this time at Farthing Common. Bring rigs, antennas and refreshments. Listen out on GB3FK
from 18:00 for confirmation in case of inclement weather. If wet, we will meet at Earlsgate.

August 2nd: This might be a good date for the Sound Mirrors walk. Let me know in plenty of time if you would like this so that it can be arranged. Dress suitably in case of inclement weather as this will go ahead regardless once arranged. We would need to meet earlier so as to make good use of the light.

September 6th: Another outing to Crete Road, but this might be Crete Road East if Russ can get permission for use of a field. Location will be announced nearer the time. Bring rigs, antennas and refreshments. Listen out on GB3FK from 18:00 for confirmation in case of inclement weather. If wet, we will meet at Earlsgate.

October 4th: An operating meeting at Earlsgate. It is hoped that we will have our HF antenna fixed up by then so we hope to be on HF and VHF and give
GB2FA an airing again. 19:30 as usual.

November 1st: At Earlsgate 19:30, a talk by Denis G0SLJ on a subject to be announced.

December 6th: I am hoping we can visit AHBS (Ashford Hospital Broadcasting Service)at William Harvey Hospital where you can see and maybe take part in
a live on air broadcast and perhaps choose your favourite music for the patients (within reason!). You will be able to see how we prepare for a
program and how we prepare tracks so that they can be played "on air".
