 GB1JSS Summer Solstice:
Radio Hams to gather at Galleywood Common

Special event station *GB1JSS* will be active during the Summer Solstice on
Saturday, June 21, the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.
The event is open to all radio amateurs and listeners.



On that day the sun will rise at 04:43 BST (03:43 UT) and set at 21:21 BST
giving 16 hours, 38 minutes and 19 seconds of daylight.

Members of the Chelmsford Amateur Radio Society (CARS) will be operating
from Galleywood Common (Grid JO01FQ WAB TL70 Postcode CM2 8TR) for much of
the day, subject to weather conditions, the station will be active as early
as possible.

*Steve Hedgecock M0SHQ*, who recently gave a well-received presentation on
satellites at the CARS amateur radio skills workshop, will be bringing his
amateur satellite station and hopes to operate as many satellite passes as
possible.

There'll also be a station operating 40m-10m plus 2m using SSB, CW, PSK and
RTTY.  The day also coincides with the first-half of the 50MHz Trophy
Contest, so there may be some 6m activity if conditions are favourable.

Wind-permitting, *Peter Bridgeman G3SUY* hopes to fly his impressive Kite
Aerial and put out a strong signal on 160m using full legal power.

Would *you* like to operate, help set-up the station or just come along for
a visit?

This is a great opportunity to use some of your portable kit at an
RF-friendly location or operate one of ours with perhaps more power than
your M6/2E licence allows.  For more details contact Charlie Davy M0PZT
