The Lothians Radio Society annual Summer Barbecue was held on Wednesday 25th June 2014 at the QTH of Pete GM4BYF and Kay Bates GM6KAY. The weather was kind to us and the midges were fewer and appeared later in the evening than last year! Among our guests we were very pleased to welcome top Swedish DXer Mats Freden SM7DXQ and his XYL Birgitta from Malmo, on their way to the IOTA 50th Anniversary meeting in London, and LRS member Vic Imamura JA5VQ / MM0JVQ who had just arrived back in Edinburgh for his annual summer visit. Many thanks to Pete and Kay for organizing a great event again.
