GB2RS Christmas arrangements

Next Sunday, 26 December 2021, will see the final GB2RS script for 2021.

The deadline for news is being brought forward to 10am on Tuesday, 21 December 2021, instead of the usual Thursday.

The news reading on 26 December is optional, as the RSGB appreciates that not all newsreaders will be available, but the script will be on the RGSB website.

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 afterwards to speak to the newsreaders, and to everyone who listens via platforms.

There will be no script prepared for broadcast on Sunday, 2 January 2022 due to RSGB HQ being closed.

Newsreaders may, of course, choose to run a net at their normal transmission time, but under their own call sign only.
