    The RSGB - what now?

    Posted: 11 Jan 2022 12:13 AM PST https://mw1cfnradio.blogspot.com/2022/01/the-rsgb-what-now.html


    Events of the past few days at the RSGB remind us that things are not
    at all as they should be at this society, and haven't been especially
    good for some time. Whilst the person resigning has explained in some
    detail why he was leaving the RSGB to its own devices, the society
    itself seems to have made absolutely no comment at all, although Len
    Paget, in his 'private capacity', has sent side-swipes over the
    resignation in a very personal and rather ugly way.

    Shocking!

    Not seen anything from Len Paget in years, no idea where his comments
    can be found these days.

    I've met and spoken to him a few of times over recent years. He seems
    a decent bloke , but I don't think he had a clue who I was. I've only
    seen Brian Reay from a distance.

    The posts from young Len are in a closed UK Radio Amateur Facebook
    group. I think there are two sides to this story, but the RSGB are less
    than forthcoming with their side.

    I remembered him posting to say that he was still here but keeping his
    head down. Just had a look and that was 2017, though.

    Doesn't time fly.
