Good afternoon
And what a good weekend was had by all at Eaton Manor in Shropshire.
A big thank you and congratulations to all who organised the event, and particularly Noel 'GTZ and Dave 'GKQ who put a lot of thought into this day-long workshop, as well as giving us an informative initial presentation. It was followed by practical operating and further testing on Sunday on the Mynd. There were about 15 of us present in total, with test gear, working Portsdowns, mini Tiounes, 5.6GHz equipment, spares, BATC boards and components and more for us to freely use and share experiences and expertise. It was the best Workshop day I've ever experienced in A.R.
Thanks too to Heather 'M0HMO, Paul G8AQA, David M0YDH, John G7ACD as well as resident helpers for providing good food and making us feel welcome.
My Portsdown now has the latest software, the RPi has moved to 'Stretch' and I've now got to box the resulting (working) rats nest!
Apologies if I've missed anyone out - my thanks to you too.
