Carl Thomson G3PEM checking-out one of Radio Caroline's 10Kw transmitters

Talk by Radio Caroline Engineer

The Chelmsford Amateur Radio Society (CARS) is fortunate to have as one of its members Carl Thomson G3PEM.

Carl was the Chief Radio Engineer onboard both Radio Caroline North and Radio Caroline South in the mid 60's.

He was responsible for keeping the 199 metres (1520 kHz) transmitter on the air, come what may.

On Tuesday 3rd January, he will be presenting a talk to CARS entitled "Life on board Radio Caroline in the 1960's".

This will give his impression of life onboard the Radio Ship and will be illustrated by previously unpublished
photographs.

The talk will be held at the Marconi Social Club, Beehive Lane, Great Baddow.

The doors open at 7:15pm and visitors are most welcome. Car parking is free and a bar is available for refreshments.
