A relatively quiet meeting (but it is the middle of winter) but again there were interesting discussions about aerials and QRP transceivers, and Cristian brought along a superb little device which we’ll link in the resources section.
Someone (David?) proposed that we consider the Pubs And Clubs On The Air weekend in mid-May so we’re searching for a friendly pub, not too far away and ideally one which a member has some connection with, even if only an occasional regular, where we could put a gazebo and a modest mast outside, and run a mains lead through the window in exchange for buying their beer and food? Suggestions welcome!
Next meeting Wednesday 23rd February 2022 at the Pear Tree pub, Barons Court at 19:00
Usual plan, hope to see you there. If you’ve built a QRP kit and haven’t shown it off then now’s your chance.
Meeting report Friday 11th February
We were joined by a guest, Igor, who in the space of weeks has moved from testing his own HF SDR receiver to getting a licence and trying all sorts of modes. Miniature QRP kits were discussed (again) as they seem to be appearing thick and fast, and maybe those who’ve built them could post the links, price and (at least) a one-line description of what they do in the Google group and we’ll put it in the resources section of the website.
Next meeting will be in The Pear Tree on Wednesday 23rd from about 7pm and it would be great to see some more of those QRP kits.

Usual plan, bring your aerial and data woes.
And your diaries so we can choose a date for an alternate online meeting.
