  • Spring Grand Junk Sale

    28th March 2024 @ 8:00 PM - 10:00 PM
    2nd Woodley Scout Group, Vauxhall Park, Vauxhall Dr, Woodley, Reading RG5 4EA, UK

    Donated pre-loved "stuff" is sold in support of the club so it's a great opportunity for a clear out.

    Venue: 2nd Woodley Scout Group, Vauxhall Park, Vauxhall Dr, Woodley, Reading RG5 4EA https://what3words.com/bowls.blame.lace

    Start time: 8pm

    The auction will start at 8pm sharp so it's best to arrive early (eg. 7:30pm) to have a look at the wares and get your raffle ticket (see below).

    Please bring along any unwanted broadly tech based items in order to support the club. Also bring your cash along to buy -er- lots of useful stuff!

    If you've not been before....here's how it works.
    If you wish to take part in the auction, you need your "number". Get this BEFORE the auction starts (in the form of a raffle ticket) from the accounting crew (David M0DHO, Barry M0SQZ). If you win an item, please shout out your number so they can record what you have bought.

    Please note:
    * If you successfully bid on something, you'll need to wait until the end (10pm) to settle up.

    * If you bring junk along and it doesn't sell then please be prepared to take it home with you.

    * Any on-commission items need to be marked clearly with the name of the beneficiary.

    * Particularly David M0DHO on the books has a tough job making sure that everything squares up. Please listen to directions from David and Barry. Communications here are key to making this work.

    Finally,

    * Even if you don't wish to buy, the evening is always entertaining.

    * Prices tend to be extremely affordable!

    * If we have time to run refreshments then we will do so but please bring your own mug. At the very least we'll get the biscuit box out.

    * Marvel at how Denis G4KWT manages the PA. The perfect example of some that works so well you simply don't notice it.

    * THANKYOU to all volunteers and indeed everyone as the junk sales are vital in supporting the club!

    If I have missed anything then please let me know.

    No zoom session this time.

  • To be confirmed: New RF Transmission/Reception Research: "LAMM" by Tim M0TFR

    9th May 2024 @ 8:00 PM - 10:30 PM
    2nd Woodley Scout Group, Vauxhall Park, Vauxhall Dr, Woodley, Reading RG5 4EA, UK

    To be confirmed
     
    We welcome Dr. Tim Brown Senior Lecturer in RF Antennas and Propagation from the University of Surrey for an in person talk looking at the cutting edge of RF research.

    We're all used to dealing with polarisation. Combined with multiple transmitting and receiving antennas (MIMO), use of multiple polarisations can be used to squeeze the most out of an RF channel.

    Now there's something new on the block: "LAMM" or "Linear Orbital Angular Momentum" to add to the mix.
     
    I'll leave it up to Tim to go into this. He's promised he'll be gentle.
