From Paul, EI3ENB
“Hi All, The next club meeting will be on Thursday next, the 3rd of July. As the VHF/UHF field day is on the following weekend it will be necessary to make arrangements as to who might be available and where we would operate from etc, your input would be appreciated.”
Its that time of year again, walkers take to the sides of the Galtee Mountains. TARG will once again be involved in the event.
Contact EI7IG for more informatio (ei7ig at ei7trg dot org).
There will be a meeting Thursday the 1st of May in Raheen house at 20:00, all are welcome.
Many thanks to EI2IT, EI3ENB, EI8EPB, and EI7IG for activating EI7T/P for the contest. It was good to get up Slievenamon again this year (it was on fire last year), and to hear so many operators on the band.

Cormac EI4HQ will give a talk to SEARG about AIS (Automatic
Identification System), a recently introduced radio based ship
transponder technology. AIS is quickly becoming an indispensable
information & safety tool at sea. Cormac will describe why AIS is
interesting from a radio point of view, and he will suggest a few ways
it can be of use in amateur radio applications.

Many thanks to everyone for attending the AGM last Thursday. For those that were not present, there are some changes to the committee. So the new committee is:
Plans are being made for a Christmas dinner, please contact John, EI7IG for details. As we are planning to have a Christmas dinner, the members present deemed it un-necessary to have a meeting in December, with the next meeting being scheduled for the 3rd of January. As the evenings are getting longer, the committee would like to encourage all members to come up on S18 to discuss any experiments they are conducting.
