A message from Stan, G0BYA 

Hello all,
  After a short break GB2CW will again be on the air. The licence for GB2CW is issued to the RSGB by OFCOM and has strict guidlines which I have to observe.

 The aim of GB2CW is not to teach the morse code,( this is best done by other programmes such as 'Just learn morse code' etc.), but to enable the listener to to hear and copy CW over the air at various speeds.
 
 The sessions will be on Tuesdays at the following times. 1915 hrs. local. on 145.250 MHz.  then at 2015 hrs. local on 3.550 MHz.

 Operation on 145.250 MHz is by F2A/F3E.  This means that the morse is sent using an oscillator and the readback using voice on FM. The text for this session will be taken from a current issue of 'RADCOM'. GB2CW cannot be used for 2 way communication so at the end of the session I will revert to my own callsign and call for any brief reports.

 Operation on 3.550 will be A1A only. I will use the same text as on the 1915 hr. broadcast. I will then close the session by sending CL and QRT and then call CQ GOBYA K so that you can send your callsign for a reply. (get your key out and go as slow as you like).

  If you have any questions on the above please give me a call.

  73/88 Stan.  GØBYA.
