Ray James GM4CXM from Bearsden presented a very interesting and comprehensive talk, “A Beginner’s Guide to DXing & Contesting on 23cm & 70cm” on 9th March.
Ray’s talk provided an overview of radio equipment, feeders, antennas and the use of modern web-based attributes in order to maximize your results. Propagation modes including aircraft reflection, meteor scatter and moonbounce were covered as well as operating hints and tips.
