There's a lot of articles of BATC members getting out and about - I guess it's summer time - with details of ATV stations getting involved with the 200 year lifeboat celebrations, details of contest activities including Russ G4SAQ going maritime mobile and Graham G3VZV operating on QO100 from New Foundland.

There's also final details of CAT24 and our general meeting - tickets will be in the BATC shop soon - Dave G8GKQ discloses details of his next project, the Portsdown 5!

The printed version of CQ-TV, in full colour on high-quality gloss paper, will be dispatched in the next few days to those members who subscribe to the printed magazine. If you currently don't receive the printed version, why not consider upgrading when you next renew your subscription?

Don't forget the Thursday evening BATC net on Oscar-100 – more details on the forum. Please join us if you have transmit capability and if not you can watch all the action on the BATC streamer: https://batc.org.uk/live/oscar100net

We would really like more feedback on CQ-TV! Do you read it from cover to cover, are the articles relevant to you or do you just file it away and never read it? Either way, please let us know what you think by posting on the BATC forum!
