- Foundation question – “Does a 1/4 wave vertical antenna radiate horizontally or vertical”?
- Foundation question – “Isolate the supply” is the correct answer to the “what to do if you find someone in contact with a mains supply”
- Don’t forget – Canvey Rally on Sunday the 2nd of February
- ISS contact – If you missed the schools contact, there’s another one on Friday just after 09:51 on 145.800MHz
- Contests – Good fun to try, and keeps you on your toes… however, frustrating when the bands are full of contesters. Swings and roundabouts
