Note that this meeting is a week later than originally scheduled as the school have advised us that due to their half term break they won’t be able to give us access.
Everyone is welcome to bring their own equipment to show or test, but if it requires table space please drop us a line so we can coordinate what goes where, both in the room and outside. Please check with Dave or JJ before setting up your own equipment and operating because we’ve had some near misses working the same bands and even the same frequencies, and also problems with sound levels in the room.
The evening will run from 7:00pm until 10:00pm, but the room is usually available from about 6:30 onward if anyone wants to arrive slightly earlier (e.g. to set up any kit).
Anyone coming by car is encouraged to use the gated carpark (to avoid neighbours complaining about parking). The roads in the area tend to be very busy until at least 6:30pm, so don’t arrive too early.
If you’re using Google Maps or Waze and probably others, it seems that Google has decided that the entrance you need is in another street as two people ended up there last month, so make sure you’re going to St. Dunstan’s Road, W6 8RB and you need the gate in the southwest corner nearest to Beryl Road.
To access the room (and car park) you will need to be let in through the security gates. Once you’re right outside the gate just summon someone using a handheld on 145.500MHz. If you can’t use a radio for entry then contact us in advance and we’ll provide a mobile number you can call instead.
Wi-Fi is available in the room (although it’s sometimes problematic so we’ve had to rely on tethering), along with a toilet, a kettle if anyone wants hot drinks (you’ll need to bring your own cups & beverages) and you can bring your own snacks and drinks, alcoholic or otherwise.
Don’t forget that the Events calendar on our website https://www.m0xhs.uk/events/ has some links at the bottom that allow you to synchronise it with Outlook, Google or iCalendar so meetings will automatically appear in your normal calendar.
As usual check the Discord server for up to the minute info and chat. Email for an invitation link if you don’t have one.
