If you know anyone who would like to join the course, please tell them to email Brian, G3YKB at <a href=\"mailto:g3ykb@yahoo.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">g3ykb@yahoo.co.uk<\/a>\u00a0 There will be an optional extra session on the morning of the 24 March.<\/p>\n<p>Following complaints from some members, the RSGB has investigated a problem with non-delivery of RadCom on Guernsey and the Isle of Man. It seems that following changes at Royal Mail, the labelling requirement for these copies was incorrectly applied by the printers and these copies didn\u2019t go through the postal system correctly. The Society is sorry that this error has occurred and apologises for any inconvenience caused. It has, of course, asked its printers to ensure that there is no repetition of this problem, and the printer has paid for the two missing copies to be sent to each RSGB member in those areas. If your RadCom doesn\u2019t arrive in future, please email the RSGB membership team via\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:membership@rsgb.org.uk\">membership@rsgb.org.uk<\/a>\u00a0so they can send a replacement and track any wider problem.<\/p>\n<p>Those who enjoy constructing and operating with low-power devices will be interested to know that a QRP conference is taking part in Rennes in the northwest of France on the 18 May 2024.
