Plans

  • We will arrange an examination for a convenient date after the exam period, allowing both the Foundation and Intermediate candidates a chance to take their relevant papers.
    • Sort out a date for the Intermediate Practicals.
    • Get the HF contact done for Foundation candidates. (Final step before exam.)
  • Possibility of using PV room+roof on the top of Lanchester for G3KMI operation. See Photos of roof.
    • Scout out possible more accessible rooms for operating, such as lecture theatres, that could then be cabled to the roof/PV Room.
    • Talk to 'Person-In-Charge' about the possibility of sustained access and kit storage.
    • Internet could be supplied to the Room via a SOWN node (currently 1 ethernet port in the room, no wifi coverage.)
  • Portable Ops after Exam period is over, and when the weather warms up.
  • Rallies. We are students. Rallies are one of the cheapest places to get kit, so rallies are the places for us to go!
