Just been on BBC Radio talking about the RSGB National Radio Centre winning The 2025 Sir Arthur Clarke Award for Space Achievement by an Education & Outreach Team last night at The British Interplanetary Society awards dinner rsgb.org/main/blog/ne...

I had the chance to give away a few points in the CQWW SSB contest as Mi1ACB from ‘the hill’ this weekend while I was in Northern Ireland with Mid Ulster ARC

It was great to meet many of @theRSGB Region 8 team and talk to lots of other visitors and friends at the Carrickfergus ARG Rally this weekend

A big thank you to Jamie Mi0KWZ and Philip Mi0MSO for their kind invitation to the Mid Ulster ARC 60th anniversary celebrations in Tandragee, NI and their amazing hospitality this weekend. It was great to see so many friends while I was there

Very enjoyable visit to the www.bsears.co.uk rally in Bury St Edmunds today. Lots of people to see and chat to - and the weather was better than expected. Great to see everyone. Thanks to Iain and Dave for running the RSGB stand.

It was great to meet Colin M0XCA and many more from the Bracknell ARC G4BRA at the RSGB National Radio Centre yesterday. Maybe we will squeeze a photo into RadCom - who knows 😉

Back in the RSGB offices today, reflecting on a very successful and interesting visit to Dayton Hamvention

Arrived back at Heathrow after Dayton Hamvention 2025 and BA even managed to get my luggage on the same flight this time, which made a nice change. Had an excellent and very productive trip.

Dayton Hamvention day 3 and coffee is dominating my breakfast plans - but my luggage has finally arrived. A fantastic event, where we meet and exchange ideas with members, societies, manufacturers, dealers - people who are as passionate about amateur radio as we are

Preparing for day 2 of Dayton Hamvention 2025. The coffee is bigger today. Had a fantastic day yesterday meeting so many people with very positive things to say about what we do at @theRSGB and enjoying demonstrating our new digital platform for members www.rsgb.org/radcom

I left London Heathrow on Wednesday to Cincinnati for Dayton - unfortunate my luggage did not. Thanks British Airways It’s now Saturday… To misquote Tony Hancock (The Radio Ham) … ‘luggage’ all over the world - but none in this country

Starting the day ready for Dayton #Hamvention 2025 on @theRSGB booth, demonstrating our new digital publishing platform for members rsgb.org/radcom #hamradio #hamr

Great day at the RSGB National Radio Centre with GB24YOTA

At the RSGB National Radio Centre again today with youngsters joining us to operate GB24YOTA for YOTA Month #hamr #amateurradio

It was a great pleasure to welcome Dale Hughes, VK1DSH to the RSGB National Radio Centre today. Dale is Chair of the ITU-R Study Group 5 WP which deals with amateur and amateur-satellite services. Dale operated the GB3RS station during his visit

We're going live at 8pm for our final RSGB Tonight@8 webinar of 2024! #RadCom Basics Editor, Tim Hier, G5TM, will discuss the various HF antennas available for portable operating and how to use very basic modelling software to ascertain the choices you have www.youtube.com/live/jKEMU-n...

Joined an interesting RSGB Spectrum Forum meeting this morning rsgb.org/spectrum-forum discussing IARU R3 & R1 conferences as well as prep for ITU WRC-27 and WRC-31 rsgb.org/wrc-27 & rsgb.org/terahertz

Another busy week Friday… Black Friday sale, latest RadCom Basics edition - the rest of the week was Board, Ofcom, publishing, comms, marketing, finance and RadCom prep for Jan edition to the printers next week - and too much coffee ☕️ GB2RS now and RSGB Spectrum Forum meeting tomorrow morning…

Waited for a break in the rain and got out for a walk. Surgeons orders, which I often forget during the week when I’m in the office. Very windy but warmer than I expected. No need for the RSGB hat today ☔️🧢

RSGB Board meeting ✅ Emails ✅ Waaay too much coffee ✅ A quick listen to the bands and yep, lots of CW. I hope CQWW CW goes well for everyone, especially my fellow M6T team mates over in windy Suffolk

Early start at the office today. Friday is always busy with GB2RS news but we are also focussed on the January edition of RadCom, preparing for Black Friday and Christmas sales, NRC activities and a Board meeting tomorrow. Second coffee already, but it won’t be the last today ☕️

I joined Bluesky yesterday because I was tired of all the wading through endless ’stuff’ elsewhere. 12 hours later and so far, I like it. Lots of people doing good things ✅ I guess the trick now is to keep it active and keep it positive
