As I am sure many are aware OFCOM this week updated the terms of our licences, giving more scope to enjoy the hobby. James will be giving us a brief talk on what has changed for all 3 licence levels, what has come into effect immediately and what will be changing in the near future. I sure there will be a discussion following this and an opportunity to ask any questions, so definitely one not to be missed if possible.

Join Dave (BCU) as he gives us this weeks talk on Fourier Transform.
"Fourier Transform is a mathematical model which helps to transform the signals between two different domains, such as transforming signal from frequency domain to time domain or vice versa." - copied from Google 🙂
Should be a great recap for some of us and something new to be learned for others - either way, should be a great informative topic.

Join us in the club room if possible for a practical evening on setting up the LARA module, both building an antenna and setting up the hardware and if time allows, looking at the mesh side of these robust devices. If this is something that you haven't done yet and want to try, let us know and we will point you in the right direction to get the hardware ready to build it on the night also.
