The club participated in the Spring VHF/UHF Field Day 2016 on Saturday 26th of November at the very picturesque North Brother Mountain Lookout.  Turnout was good with over a dozen members making the journey up the mountain.  6m was alive on the day thanks to a solid helping of Sporadic E, but we weren’t so lucky with 2m or 70cm.  Despite the threat of some bad weather, it turned out to be a lovely day and the clubs station was perfectly situated out of the constant strong winds at the lookout.

The club also provided communications for the White Ribbon Coastal Walk on the morning of the Sunday the 27th (no photos yet, sorry) – thanks to the 7 members who assisted.  Henry VK2ZHE mentioned that the highlight of the day was a good chat with our Mayor, Peter Besseling, who personally thanked us for our involvement in the walk and showed interest in the activities and wellbeing of the club.

If anyone has any photos I’d be happy to update the post – please send them to the club email. 🙂

See you all the Christmas party next weekend!
