This is a photo of the old Radio Club room, taken in December 1994.

This is the room at the concourse end of the top floor of the old SUSU building.

Starting at the left hand side on the benches we have:

  • the control box for the 2m linear amplifier
  • an external speaker
  • Icom IC-475H
  • 2m/70cm antenna rotator control with 2m linear amp switch box on top of it
  • Icom IC-275E
  • 12V car battery just peeking out behind an external speaker
  • 12V 20A power supply for the HF and 70cm rigs
  • 486 computer with 25MHz processor and the full 8MB of RAM running Windows 3.1 (wow!) with an TNC on top of it for 2m or 70cm packet radio.
  • Kenwood TS-450 with an external speaker on top of it ("it was such a good radio I'm thinking about buying one for myself" - Neil).
  • HF Linear amplifier with a cross needle SWR meter on top of it.
  • 1:1 isolator transformer box for 240V
  • Kettle just visible at the right hand end of the picture

Under the benches you can see the Kenwood/Trio TS-780 2m/70cm radio on its side next to the set of drawers. I did manage to get this working for a while but it was intermittent. There were also some very old receivers under the benches.

On the first shelf above the bench we have:

  • LCR meter
  • PCB etching fluid and equipment
  • clock
  • an 800W valve
  • lots of component drawers
  • small black SWR meter ("I still have one of those" - Neil)
  • stereo radio with two tape decks and detachable speakers (Belonged to Neil)
  • box with old valves in it

On the second shelf above the bench we have

  • headphones
  • box files that I think had licenses and minutes of meetings etc...
