As for previous months, September’s club meeting will be a virtual event held using the Zoom videoconference application. This is easy to use and you do not need a camera on your computer to participate. You can also use a smart phone rather than a desktop or laptop. The event starts at7:45 BST and consists of a presentation followed by a general chat session.
September’s talk is by Pete Birkin M6PYB and will discuss a ‘homebrew’ project where an CTCSS encoder for a Yaesu FT-736R was designed, manufactured and tested. The talk will discuss the complete process with particular emphasis on the design and manufacturing options available. Finally, testing of the system and its performance targeting a range of local repeaters is presented.
For security you do need a Meeting ID and password to access the event. These are emailed out to club members and accredited visitors a few days beforehand. If you have not received one of these emails for previous meetings, and would like to join this one, please email the Club secretary (Alan G3UQW) or myself to be added to the distribution list.
