I was going to say that this is almost a continuation of the discussion we were having on the Pirate Crap Heap before the website changed over. I see thats re-appeared now which is great. Recording is well under way for the next FRSH 30th anniversary broadcast on Sunday 27th February (7600/5800, als...

The FRSH broadcasts due for 16th January have been delayed. A new date will be announced very shortly. It should hopefully be still within the next few weeks.

The 3rd part of the FRSH anniversary broadcasts will take to the air on Sunday 16th January. There is still time to add your contributions to the programmes on that day, such as memories of FRSH in days gone by via email or audio recording, or just a letter or email saying you heard the Oct/Nov broa...

Thanks for the logging Andy. Yes conditions were strange with me too yesterday. Geronimo was S9+20db around 1000UTC but then suffered deep fading and reduced signal strength soon after. The tx operator Chris had heavy snow at his location (as most of us have!) and said that the antenna tends to play...

Thanks for the Geronimo logging Michel, not a bad sinpo considering it was only the 20W txer on the air. The 200W txer should be back on for the Christmas broadcasts.

Thanks Andy. A busy day for me today :) The promos for FRSH heard early on 6200 and 6265 were from R East Coast Holland. Geronimo may be on sooner but will certainly be on 21 Nov and FRSH is back 28 Nov with part 2 of the anthology. Maybe next time I wikll play more music and less talk but just foll...

Thanks for the Geronimo logging Andy. This transmission was on very low power using just 20 Watts so thats not bad at all. Chris tells me he'll be on with 200W hopefully next Sunday

Any repllies appreciated to: Chris Watson at Geronimo SW
