Listen Out for G3SAD
Club members with full licences can be heard around the bands using the club callsign G3SAD. Members who would like permission to use the club callsign (in return for a completed adif of their log) are invited to contact Tom or Rob for details.
Could be fun to see who records the most interesting QSO’s and on each band and mode?
