GB2RS 40m broadcasts continue

We recently reported that the GB2RS 40 metre news reader Jimmy Porter, GI3GGY, has suffered a failure of his huge antenna and would be off the air for a while.

In the meantime, the RSGB have announced that Martyn Phillips, G3RFX, will be reading the GB2RS News at 10am on 7.150MHz from Clifton, Bristol.

He runs 400W into a dipole at 50ft and, although he does not put out such a good signal as GI3GGY, he has already had good reports from Germany.
