Late news.

The Leicester Show has mover to a new venue due to re devopment of Donington Park.  The venue this year is Loughborough University and the rally dates are Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th September.  British Railways ARS will be in attendance.

My thanks go to all the staff and pupils who ably assisted me and my XYL in running the special event station at Hope Valley college.  Despite the poor conditions a number of contacts were made in the available time.

Band conditions have again deteriorated during  the summer months so for the forseeable time contact with our Firac friends in the USA will revert to echolink at 15.00 UTC.

Finally thanks to all of you for taking time  to look at the web page, including the somewhat odd sectionson cricket and my birth villiage of Edale where I was born in the early 1940's. It is still my second home although I no longer reside in the vale.
