The RSGB Region 8 Team is hosting GB100RAF in the STEM Village, that’s Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths, on the 1st and 2nd of September at the 2018 Portrush Airshow, AirWaves. Mid Ulster Amateur Radio Club will provide their display trailer for the weekend and RAF Amateur Radio Society members will facilitate the GB100RAF call sign. The team is aiming to run the SES for the full weekend as part of the ongoing RAF100 commemorations, whilst demonstrating amateur radio and its technological diversity to the general public. Clubs and amateurs from around the region are welcome to come along and join the fun. The team would be delighted if you can stay to chat to visitors, pass on some of your passion for the hobby and even take a turn at operating GB100RAF. The team hopes to be operating on VHF/UHF and HF, posting more detail via social media during the days if possible. QSL information for GB100RAF is via G8FC, the club call sign of HQ RAF Amateur Radio Society.
