Southern Vintage Radio Meet - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Pamphonica · 12th Dec 2015, 7:15 pm

For a couple of years a small bunch of like-minded folk have been meeting up a few times a year to chat about our various electronic passions, see our collections and projects and have lunch together.

There's a thread over on Golborne suggesting that it's time for another meet-up in the new year. Possibly in N London in January. No date as yet, just seeing who can come.

These meet-ups started being organised via the VRAT forum a couple of years ago but now include anyone who has an interest in vintage electronics, on any forum.

The thread is here http://golbornevintageradio.co.uk/fo...d.php?tid=5224 on the Golborne site. It's in the "Lounge", so please register if you haven't already, and post there regarding coming to the meet-up.

Hoping to see lots of UKVRRs, VRATs and others there.

all the best
Jeremy

That's a crazy site. I signed up many moons ago but since then it will not accept my password. The site then asks for an e-mail address so that a new password can be sent but when I put it in (double checked for correctness) it tells me my email address is invalid. Errr I don't think so!

No slagging off of other forums here please. We try to maintain friendly relationships with the other UK vintage radio forums. If you have a problem with another forum, you should contact an administrator or moderator there.

Back on topic:

OK, fellow UKVRR/VRAT/GVR enthusiasts...

We finally have a date - Sunday March 20th, at my house (postcode GU25).

So far we have as attendees:
Me (pamphonica)
Brian (Brianc)
Jeffrey (ppppenguin)
Terry (Terry)
Mike (Crackle)
Mark (Mark Henessey)
Brian Summers (Beamcurrent)
Hamid (Hamid_1) - if he can

Please post here if you want to come and I will send a group PM to attendees with details closer to the date.

Basically I suggest we kick off at 1100-1130 and stroll down to the pub for lunch at about 1230.

I will organise some tables (inside) so stuff can be sold or displayed. I will have some rummage boxes of stuff for sale for Museum funds donations and you are welcome to contribute.

Looking forward to seeing you all here in March.

Jeremy

Hello Jeremy,

add me too, I was a bit vague on Sunday but I now have an official pass

Pamphonica · 11th Mar 2016, 12:58 pm

Invitation PMs have now been sent. See you all on Sunday.
Jeremy

Pamphonica · 16th Mar 2016, 6:54 pm

I have the following booked to attend on Sunday.
If you are NOT coming please let me know asap, as I need to confirm the pub booking and Sunday is always booked solid. I have 12 places booked already but they can squeeze in 2 more maximum if required. It's a tiny pub!
See you on Sunday
All the best
Jeremy

Great to meet everyone today, special thanks to Jeremy for hosting & the many cups of tea. I sorted my Racal 836 by re-seating some of the pcbs, it's working fine again.
