Radios for the Fast Set
Icom UK and Martin Lynch help
GB Childrens Ski Team to communicate!
Radio
communication manufacturer, Icom (UK) Ltd and leading retailer Martin
Lynch & Sons have recently supported the British Childrens Ski
Team by supplying the members with radio communication equipment.
When we received the initial enquiry, we approached Icom UK who
were very pleased to help us put together an affordable package
said Chris Taylor, Sales Director of Martin Lynch.
"Their equipment gets a tough old battering in all weathers but
the IC-F12s we are supplying are extremely robust and easy
to use, even with gloves on!
Dr Jenny Shute, manager of the Childrens Team, was happy to concur
We are very grateful to Chris and his friends at Icom for
all their help; we need the radios to communicate between trainers on
the mountain and on race days to feed information back to the next racers.
Reliability, ease-of-use and battery life in cold weather are crucial
we have found Icom to be extremely sturdy.
Martin Lynch & Sons operating from Chertsey are one of the largest
specialist radio retailers, repairers and mail-order companies in the
UK and were able to deliver the goods within days.
Chris Taylor was pleased to hand over the new equipment, specially protected
in a purposelined flight-bag, to Harry Craggs of the Childrens Squad,
just in time for the first race of the season this weekend in Czechoslovakia.
See picture above.
The Team have eight races in Europe during the season, including the
unofficial World Championships, the Topolino Races in Italy in February.
