Apologies if someone has already posted this, but the Southend Air Cadets, are operating HF radio, on the above dates. If anyone has a spare 5 mins, back from the Med, or in the middle of the pond, maybe give them a call, I am sure they would appreciate it. Cheers Kiwi1. :ok:
Maybe some of the girls and guys will end up sitting in yr RHS in a few years :)
