Eary Cushlin was great.

Eary Cuslin was a very busy weekend.
Radio conditions were fantastic with many quality contacts.
A busy workshop created a 3 section top band vertical; it was a pleasure to see so much dedication going into the production of this beast.
Then the beast was let loose into the morning air – and it was all hands to the ropes to control its desire to dance in the sky. This was the sporting element of the weekend – some you win (occasionally) and many you don’t win!! Never mind it was great fun!

The Outward Bound Centre at Eary Cushlin, is available to Society members this week end (Sat mid-day to Sun mid-day) 19th-20th September.
So why not come along and try out you latest antenna or just operate radio without disturbance (all night if you wish).
This is a fine radio location with no local interference and lots of available land. Bring some food and a sleeping bag if you would like to stay overnight. (£10 for the day and £20 for overnight).

Eddystone 740

A working Eddystone 740 receiver is available to be used and cared for by an interested individual.
Ring 623715 to arrange collection.
