Open invite for young people to come along to HF SSB Field Day with the Camb-Hams on 3rd/4th Sept in Cambridge. Anyone interested?

The aim would be to run a mini conference (livestreamed) to try and kickstart some youth events

Cost would be ~£25, accommodation is tents

Great opportunity to work on powerful software used by hams, academics, and large companies alike!

Most of the mentors and project leads are Amateur Radio operators and very open to talking about any ideas!

Here's a great chance to receive images from the International Space Station! The ESA has full video tutorials on how to use phones or computers and the @goonhillyorg Ground Station or other Web SDRs to receive the signals and decode the images.

Does anyone have recommendations for videos or websites which introduce a wide range of Amateur Radio activities? Chatting on the air, DX, microwave, EME, digital modes, homebrew (simple and complex), SDR, amateur TV, satellite operations, contesting, ...
What other topics?

[RSGB @theRSGB]

The Radio Communications Foundation is a charity committed to supporting radio clubs in schools, colleges and universities. If you need help to establish, resurrect or improve a school, college or university #amateurradio club, contact the RCF: https://t.co/MfghbS3aDD #hamr

[UK University Amateur Radio @uk_uar]

@theRSGB Thanks RSGB. We're really eager to connect with more groups and help new ones start! We're also collecting a list of staff who can help students start groups or who know about uni clubs that have become inactive over the years.

[UK University Amateur Radio @uk_uar]

If you have any photos or stories about what your University club has been doing let the RSGB know!

[RSGB @theRSGB]

Are you a member of a University #amateurradio club? Or do you lecture at a university or college which has one? Email [email protected] to let us know what you do and send photos of your uni club activities - we'll feature them in future Photo Fridays and in other comms #GOTA2C

Last night at @Museum_Cardiff's After Dark event was great fun! We talked to loads of kids and a good number of curious parents as well. This was our first outreach event to the general public and definitely won't be the last.
