And finally,

My thanks for the great response to date, as always if you unearth any old photographs of Club Meetings or VHF/UHF contest days back in the late 70's/80's, or know of someone who has, please could I borrow them to scan and share here for everyone to enjoy ?  They will be treated with TLC and returned within days.  Please e-mail g4oar@wadarc.com
