Outing report
- Batteries were depleted. Oops.
- It was cold. Good.
- Biscuits and digestive biscuit sandwiches are delicious.
- Only made a couple of contacts. We should have entered the contest...
- Tried to use Morse's table, but they couldn't figure out how to assemble it.
- Used the end-fed Zepp. Tried to use Henry's Pro whip, it didn't work. Would work quite well to set up a wire HF dipole between two trees. That would be cool.
- Didn't have enough chairs, but had a bench.
- We could do with a weight for throwing things into trees, or a drone ;)
- NEED MALLET!!!!!!!!
Amateur Radio AOB

Joint Agenda
This month's events
- Two weeks' time is the AGM
- Then it's easter, so people still here can just meet and not do much
- Software hacking session.
Storage shenanigans
- 54 Cupboard
- 32 Cupboard
- Cage 9
- Arihant went down and the cage was a tip, moreso than usual. He posted it to group.
- LiveSoc blamed unauthorised users using their kit
- Tyler has changed code and told Cage 9 Facebook group
- We want to change back to a padlock + key, as if LiveSoc's accusations are accurate, the code system simply isn't working.
Anyone need to be added to the mailing list?
