Mast

Overview of things that have happened
- Tyler's technicial drawing http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/tw16g08/Pictures/TechnicialDrawing.pdf
  - Render http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/tw16g08/Pictures/Rendering.jpg
- We have the crossed 2m yagi
- Turns out the guy in charge of the building wasn't aware; he's now looking over our plans.
Yagi for 70cm - single/crossed?
- Single, I think, because we determined crossed was too big/expensive.
- Tyler suggests asking Moonraker for a custom one?
- Polarisation
  - Horizontal, as the vertical can cover vertical.
Powerbeam Range test with nanobeam
- That will happen, in the maths tower, later this evening hopefully.
Other societies
- Astrosoc hasn't got back to me yet.
- It'd be nice to have a meeting with/directly contact other socs.
Other mast business
- Henry needs to respond to HF beam people
Tyler has spoken to Mike Nash, he has passed on the information to the person who needs to approve it.

VHF National Field Day Contest (4th-5th July)

Still with Basingstoke?
- Yes, different site.
- Meeting with BARC - Tuesday Evening at the Cart & Horses Nr. Winchester
- Possible Site (near old site, but lower)
- Also working on a far better site, but no permission yet.

Residual wordpressy things

Wiki homepage button?

QSL Cards

QSL card design submissions
- On hold due to the mast
Received QSL cards
- Murray has volunteered to scan these in but needs to get the cards off Tyler - any progress?
- Also buy and put in a physical album - any progress?

AOB (radio)

Joint Agenda

Mailing List and Wiki

Mailing list additions (Dave N)
New wiki accounts (Dave N)

Cupboard

We still need another key, I think?
- Ask Joyce how it works.

AOB (joint)

BEER FESTIVAL NEXT WEEK
- 6:30pm (probably get there a little earlier in order to get a place in the queue), Guild Hall. Free entry, no tickets required. But obviously you need to pay for the beer...
