  1. The Committee stood down and was re-elected,

  2. We will change the net frequency from 145.475 to 145.375 because of increased QRM 1. Matt gets a lot of QRM on 145.475 at Site 2.

  3. We will move the net from Friday back to Wednesdays where in used to be before the Covid pandemic, in two shifts
    19:00 onwards - early and

  4. We propose to reopen the club in person at Site 2 from Friday 21st May 7pm at Site 2, which should be within the planned Covid rules of up to 30 outdoors. This is contingent on the Covid situation, and to some extent the British weather!
