There used to be an Amateur Radio Club in Bath but as with many things it disappeared. However, there is a virtual group on yahoo and for some time there has been talk about finding a place to meet. This is always a problem but thanks to a friend and an chat one day it seems the Bath club may start up again. The plan is to have an informal meeting to see what interest there is and then with a view to having the next meeting as the official founding meeting.
The meeting is open to anyone interested in Amateur radio and will be held on -
