Essex 2m Activity Day 20 Nov 2021

Tomorrow, Saturday the 20th of November 2021 is another chance for amateurs across Essex to inject some life into 2m, as it’s another Essex 2m Activity Afternoon.

The event is organised by the Thurrock Acorns club, in the hope that clubs and amateurs across the county will get on-air. As usual, the Essex 2m Activity event will be supported by Essex Ham.

Get on the air!

The event runs from 1pm till 5pm on Saturday the 20th of November, and we’d ask amateurs in and around Essex to get on to 2m and show your support.

Essex Ham will be out for the afternoon at the East Essex Hackspace in Hockley – All are welcome to attend, especially any newcomers in the area that want to get hands-on with some amateur radio kit. The address is:

East Essex Hackspace
Hawkwell Pavilion
Park Gardens
Hockley
SS5 4HF

All are welcome to attend and there’s free parking, but we only have room for one station, which will be a 2m station for the “Essex 2m Activity Day”, so please don’t bring along your equipment (although if you’re operating, it’s fine to bring your own radio to be swapped when you’re on-air for Covid reasons)

Below is a short video showing what the East Essex Hackspace is all about:

As for the Activity Afternoon, keep an eye on this page, and on Twitter, for updates on where to find the Essex Ham station on 2m, and see the TAARC site for details of their operating schedule.
