Myself and Rem after much discussion have decided we should some field day's with the specification intention of concentrating on radio communications, the prime focus will be on signals from space (the shuttle, ISS, EVA's etc) but in between passes, we plan to hold some QSL's, mess about with a other few interesting random bits. We will be monitoring STS-124 and STS-125 which is an historic event in itself due to the it being Hubble's last servicing and Atlantis' last flight

[edit] Where?

Rem's place in Ashford, he has the room to accomodate the kit, and internet access, the exact location is confidential and will be handed out to the necessary people on a need to know basis

[edit] Equipment

If you have any radio equipment to bring along then bring it!, it would also be a great help if you could all bring some form of antenna and scanner, although myself and rem will be bringing the mainstay of the kit which includes antenna's, receivers, downconvertor's and LNA's

[edit] Misceallaneous

Bring any food, drink, laptops and other random kit as you feel necessary, maybe we could have a BBQ at the sametime!
