On Wednesday night, Mick M6OYP, a member of or club gave a talk on his
journey with the Invictus games and Archery.




Starting at 7:30pm members of the club moved into the village hall where
Mick talked through his presentation on the Invictus Games and how he had applied to volunteer at the next Games in 2022.








Mick then went on to tell the story of how a chance meeting of the members
of the Invictus Games GB team turned into a new found joy of Archery with
the intention of taking his initial competition wins further by training to compete in the 2023 Games if he can get selected.








The Club wishes Mick the best of luck in the future.

Earlier this month Steve, M5ZZZ, gave a talk to the members on End Fed Half Wave Antennas.








Steve started out by showing a selection of videos produced by Waters & Stanton.








Steve then told us about his own experiences with Half Wave End Fed
Antennas and passed round a 49:1 Transformer to show how easily one could
be made. It is hoped that from this talk members will be encouraged to go
out and try building there on EFHW even if it is used as an easy portable setup.
