By 2E0KSH, on May 4th, 2013  The GX3RCM trailer is a fantastic donation to the club in April 2013 given to us by the Radio Society of Great Britain (RSGB). Sheffield were 1 of 5 clubs in the UK that contended with a successful bid, after providing an expression of interest with a detailed proposal on how we would utilise this marvelous resource.
The trailer was originally used as the GB4FUN demonstration module, used to promote Amateur Radio at rallies, events and importantly as a teaching tool to schools to introduce young people to this hobby. The RSGB decided it wanted to move forward onto other means of activities, and Sheffield were offered this trailer after our . . . → Read More: GX3RCM – Radio Communications Module
By G3PHO, on April 26th, 2013 Many of you reading this will have by now seen the slide show of our special event station GB5SWW held over the 12-13th April this year. A post appears elsewhere on this website. You can see the slide show (ie a silent movie of still pictures) on You Tube by clicking here.

The organisers, M1ERS, M0TWs and G3PHo would like to thank all SARC members who called us on the air and/or came along to either help or just to have a look at what we were doing. It’s always nice to see our own club members and other local . . . → Read More: GB5SWW a great success!

Let the introductory projector & screen bit run for around 30 seconds and it will automatically go to the main video. Ignore the press Play request 
By G3PHO, on April 12th, 2013 SARC are active on the 12-13th April 2013 as GB5SWW from the Cantor Building, Sheffield Hallam University. The station is part of an art and film exhibition by award winning film maker Esther Johnson, M3PEJ. Included in the exhibition are two films about amateur radio and the byegone days of analogue Broadcasting radio.
We will be mainly on 40 and 20m with some excursions to the higher bands if noise levels allow (they are very high at present on 80 and 40!).
All QSLs should go via the GB bureau but if you prefer direct then send via G3PHO whose address is correct ONLY on www.QRZ.com. The Callbook address is not correct.
Details of the exhibition can be found at:

By G3PHO, on March 22nd, 2013 The AFS Results have just been published. These two contests were 4 hours each (1400-1800UTC), one on ssb and one on CW. We entered three teams (actually 2.5 teams!) in the SSB Contest and a quarter team (G3PHO solo) in the CW test. Here are the results: (Click on each image for a larger version)
