GX0TRG calling the world!

Pete Sipple of the recently formed Thames Amateur Radio Group popped in this morning to explain exactly what amateur radio is all about and why it still holds its appeal in an age of internet, Skype and general 24/7 communication. The Group were holding a special event day at our studios at the Brentwood Centre – with all sorts of aerials set up – and today was the first time their call sign had been used – GX0TRG!  Pete popped back later to tell us some of the far flung places they’d managed to reach – including Russia and Hullbridge! If you’d like to find out more about amateur radio or the Group visit their website.

I also caught up this morning with Sunday Lunch presenter Tony Smith, who – along with Eat My Lunch’s Michelle Ward – has been working hard putting together the very first Phoenix in the Foyer gigs this evening. This promises to be the first of many great nights out – and a bargain, at just £7!
