Monday night we snuck into Ashhurst, grabbed some dinner from the Fish and Chip shop across the street, and then set up for a cuppa at the hall. Cheryl ZL2VCC and Max ZL2MAX then gave us a run down on the history of the group, the show setup with the sound and lighting control. Very interesting night and cool to see the behind the scenes setup of the show.

Assembling some of the component and software in the case for the new D-star repeater for North Range Road.

Great evening out at Jack's place, certainly good to see what a dipole looks like in a straight line and not angled oddly for a small back section.

Charlie ZL2CTM demoed some of his homebrew radios. He has given the link below as a great text for homebrew.  Solid State Design For The Radio Amateur 1986 https://archive.org/details/SolidStateDesignForTheRadioAmateur1986/page/n3/mode/2up
