This weekend, Saturday the 19th of March 2022 is another chance for
amateurs across Essex to inject some life into 2m, as it’s another Essex 2m Activity Afternoon.
The event is organised by the Thurrock Acorns club, in the hope that clubs
and amateurs across the county will get on-air. As usual, the Essex 2m
Activity event will be supported by Essex Ham, as we fully support the aims
of the scheme.
Get on the air!
The event runs from 1pm till 5pm on Saturday the 19th of March, and wed ask amateurs in and around Essex to get on to 2m and show your support.
Our Draft Schedule
1pm FM (calling CQ on 145.500MHz)

Essex Ham will be out for the afternoon at the East Essex Hackspace in
Hockley All are welcome to attend, especially any newcomers in the area
that want to get hands-on with some amateur radio kit. The address is:
East Essex Hackspace

All are welcome to attend and theres free parking, but we only have room
for one station, which will be a 2m station for the Essex 2m Activity Day,
