SUMMARY:Club meeting - DF Hunt (Sydney Arms)
DESCRIPTION:NB: This club meeting will not take place at the clubhouse. \nThe club will hold its annual Direction Finding (DF) Hunt\, also known as “fox hunt”\, at the woodland in Scadbury\, using the beer garden of the Sydney Arms pub as the base\, which is the same venue we have used for the last couple of DF Hunts. \nThis location has many paved paths on a slight slope which will make hunting easier and safer. \nThe base camp for the evening will be the Sydney Arms Public House in Old Perry St\, Chislehurst BR7 6PL. This is halfway between Chislehurst War Memorial and the A20 Sidcup roundabout. The Sydney Arms is a short walk from the Scadbury woodlands and is able to provide liquid refreshment and has a decent hot food menu which you can look up on-line (https://www.sydneyarms.com/menus/) if you wish to bring supporters to liven up the evening! \nThe pub has a car park and garden\, with additional on-street parking available and another car park nearby. The event is a social evening so do come along even if you don’t intend to compete in the DF Hunt. \nWe aim to meet in the Sydney Arms just prior to 7.30pm and send you out in individual groups with a timed spacing\, the last group going out at 8.30pm. The end of the hunt is timed for 9.30pm\, so we can all gather safely at the base and announce the winner(s) of the prestigious “Tally Ho! Cup”. \nThe transmitters will be in the 144.700 MHz region and will be transmitting MCW (modulated carrier wave) signals which can be received by any FM receiver and will be vertically polarized\, so any cheap 2 metre transceiver will work. \nYou will need a directional antenna and a simple switched attenuator in the antenna line. The transmitters will be located just off the paths\, no need to go cross country to find anything! The actual transmitters will have a tag attached to them with a message written on it. You are required to note down the message content and show it to the adjudicator upon your return to base. The transmitters will all have different MCW messages and will be sent with different tone frequencies\, this will enable those who are not too brilliant at Morse to easily distinguish between transmissions.

SUMMARY:GB2CM special event station - Crossness Steaming Day
DESCRIPTION:The club will be operating special event station GB2CM at Crossness Museum. We will begin setup at 8.30 with the aim of being on the air when the Museum opens at 10am. Operation will close at 4pm\, and we expect to be operating on HF (mainly 40m) CW/SSB and 2m FM. \nOperating GB2CM at Crossness Museum is now a regular event for Cray Valley Radio Society: \n\nIn 2024\, the club operated at Crossness for International Museums Weekends (also known as Museums on the Air)\nIn 2023\, GB2CM was activated at Crossness for Railways on the Air\n\nThe Museum itself is well worth a visit while you’re on site. There is a charge for admission to the Museum\, and booking in advance is recommended. Visit https://crossness.org.uk/ for details. The ‘Prince Consort’ steam engine will be in steam on the day. This is believed to be the largest working rotative steam beam engine in the world. \n  \n
