Monday 09/01/2012

Our first radio play session of 2012 in the Banstead scout hut. A lot has happened over the Christmas period and it was great to catch up with friends.   

Stuart turned up with a Racal 1772 receiver which was not working. This got some of us in fault finding mode.

Steve showed us his new Kenwood TS-590. This is a great bit of kit and it was the first time I was able to sit and play with one. This is one radio which is on my wish list.

Steve also has some Sealed Lead Acid Battery chargers he had purchased in the pound shop in Croydon. These 
were on offer at cost price and a number of us took up the offer.

Chris was playing with a large 2 metre antenna which he purchased at CATS.

All in all a very pleasurable night.
