20th North Wales Amateur Radio Show - Cancelled!For commercial reasons, the Rally to be held in Llandudno this November, is now cancelled, as the event is no longer viable. This is due to the very high cost of the venue, falling visitor numbers and lack of support from many of our traders. It is with the deepest regrets that after 20 years, this very successful Rally will close for 2006. We would like to thank all traders for their support and encouragement over the years; thanks also to our many visitors in the UK and overseas for supporting us - for the last 20 years!. The cost of the venue hire alone has increased this year to a whopping £9000, and the Society feel that this burden alone makes the event untenable. Also, lower membership numbers with which to organize the event, loss of traders dealing with Amateur radio Equipment, (due to other marketing trends), has all contributed to the loss. The Society is looking for another venue that is more in keeping with the hobby, with substantial reductions in our cost. Also the Society feel that we would like to revert to a one day event, thereby lowering costs to us, and more importantly to our many traders. We will keep you all informed as to our deliberation. All Deposits and payments will be refunded in full to those that have already paid. May we thank to all who have supported us, and given their time freely for the last 20 years. Edward Shipton GW0DSJ North Wales Radio Society:
