GB75PW on the air from PW offices

GB75PW will be on the air on 7MHz from the Practical Wireless offices in Broadstone, Dorset from 1300-1600 on Monday 24th of September to mark the 75th anniversary of Practical Wireless magazine.

Because of antenna limitations they are only planning to work on 40 metres. This is a special 'one off event' and cannot be repeated from the PW office.

On Friday 5th October, both Rob Mannion, G3XFD, the editor of PW and Tex Swann, G1TEX, PW's Technical Editor, will be airing the GB75PW callsign at the Ribble Railway Museum, Preston. They plan to be there all day, and will be operating mostly on 7 and 14 MHz.

On the Saturday 6th October, they'll be at the Rochdale QRP Convention - the last one to be held at the Church where Rev. George Dobbs, G3RJV, is the vicar. George retires next year and the event is moving to another venue.

This event takes place at St Aidan's Church, Sudden, Rochdale, Lancs. (On A664 Manchester road, 3 mins from M62/J20). Web: http://www.gqrp.com
