Also in GB2RS this week…

Did you know that each RSGB Region has a Facebook page that focuses on regional amateur radio communities? The majority of posts are from clubs, individual licensees, and event organisers from that area and the content is moderated by members of the RSGB Regional Team. Some RSGB news content is also shared that will be of interest to amateurs in that particular region. These pages can also be used to ask for help about any aspect of amateur radio. Whether you’re an individual or a club, do make use of this resource. Go to facebook.com/groups/rsgbregion1 for Region 1, facebook.com/groups/rsgbregion2 for Region 2, etc.

The 235 Alive DMR net takes place on TGIF Talk Group 235 on Mondays and Fridays from 7.30pm. Everyone is welcome. For details of how to connect, visit the 235 Alive Facebook page or go to 235alive.com.

International Women’s Day YL Parks on the Air Party takes place on Sunday, 8 March 2026. Rather than being a contest, the main goal is to encourage women to get out, get on the air, and be more active in amateur radio. For more information visit the event’s Facebook page.

SOS Radio Week is an annual event that takes place throughout May 2026 to celebrate the work of the volunteers from the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), independent lifeboats, and National Coastwatch stations around the British Isles. Registration is now open at sosradioweek.org.uk.
