Only one more GB2RS this year

Next Sunday, the 27th, will see the final GB2RS script for 2020. The deadline for news is 10am on Tuesday the 22nd of December, instead of the usual Thursday. The news reading on the 27th is optional, as the RSGB appreciates that not all newsreaders will be available as normal, but the script will be on the RGSB website so all can see it.

We’d like to take this opportunity to thank all the newsreaders who read the news on a variety of platforms for their service to their fellow amateurs throughout the year.

We’d also like to remind amateurs that there has been a long-standing convention to keep 145.525MHz free of traffic at 10am on Sundays, to allow the news reading to go ahead without interference.

Thank you to all those who listen on Sunday mornings, and the other times that the news is read, to those who call in after to speak to the newsreaders, and to everyone who listens via various internet-based ways.

There will be no script prepared for broadcast on Sunday the 3rd of January 2021 due to the RSGB HQ being closed. Newsreaders may, of course, choose to run a net at their normal transmission time, but under their own callsign only.
