A quick reminder Sunday the 5th of February 2023, is the Canvey Rally.
This is the 36th Canvey Rally, and the first one since the Covid lockdown, so it’ll be a great opportunity to catch up with old friends as well as newcomers to the hobby. This popular annual event is run by the team at SEARS, the South Essex Amateur Radio Society.
The rally is a great place to go to pick up a bargain, catch up with local amateurs and clubs, and, of course, enjoy a SEARS bacon buttie.
Doors open at 10:00am. Admission price is £4. Parking is free, although there are only limited spaces at the school, so you may need to use nearby off-street parking. Getting there early is always a good plan if you want a bargain (although that’s the busiest time)

Agreed – great to be back at a rally and to meet up with people after a long break. Great to catch up (and have a brief dance!). 73, Pete
Hi Essex Club,
Just a word of thanks, for your help over the last 3 years. I’m not a club member, distance ( from the Deep South) and mobility prevents me from travel. However,
I learned a great deal from your club podcasts. Passed my foundation with your help,and motivated to pass my intermediate licence. I wandered into your cw Thursday class by chance and found the usual professional help and encouragement that seems to be the hallmark of your club.with Dean and others I’m on my way to having my first cw qso. I won’t
Pursue the full licence because my 2 loves are cw and recently dmr, and I don’t have the need to advance any further. But what a club, thanks again, every success to you in the future.
