This coming Monday, the 19th of May 2014, is the next CARS Skills Night – These monthly sessions are open to all (regardless of licence and experience levels), and are a great opportunity to chat, swap ideas, and get hands-on with something new. As regular attendees know, what we cover on the evenings is decided by you.
Here is what’s planned for the May Skills Night:
- A live CW station – Operated by members of the Essex CW Club
- Soldering practical – Soldering plugs and connectors – Need help with a lead? Bring it along
- Hands-on with Storm Tracking kit
- Working Satellites – How to track and work amateur radio satellites
- The quiz will run again – just a bit of fun!
- Show-and-tell: All are welcome to bring along any items for show-and-tell
- Representatives from CARS, Essex CW Club, the Essex Repeater Group and Essex Ham will be on-hand, and happy to answer your questions
If you’re interested in coming along, the evening starts at 7pm, although you’re welcome to arrive any time between 7pm and 9pm. If you have anything you’d like to bring along to show to the others, that would be great.
The event is open to all and there’s no charge for attending the CARS Amateur Radio Skills workshops. Tea, coffee and biscuits will be available throughout the evening and an optional small donation to the tea fund and hall hire would be appreciated.
