-| 4th Apr 2026 | Mark Pentler 2M0IIG | An overview of aviation RF emissions | Enter the world of Aviation RF and discover the many and varied signals that aircraft emit. Learn about tracking planes over ADS-B, digging deeper into operations with ACARS reception, shooting for the niche world of satellite aviation comms, and - for the real nerds - the various navigation aids and other bleeps and bloops that help aircraft do their job.
 | 2nd May 2026 | Ian Renton M0TRT | Everything on the Air: An Introduction to Operating in the Great Outdoors | If you're curious about getting started in portable operation, how to go about it, where to go, or even why you should try it at all, this talk is for you. Ian only got started working portable in 2024, but quickly caught the bug, and 100-or-so park activations later, he'll share what he's learned about rigs, antennas, batteries, and operating techniques. From tough mountain climbs to the park down the road, and even just operating from your car, portable operating has something for every level of fitness and appetite for adventure! |

 | 3rd Jan 2026 | Jonathan Naylor G4KLX | [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGBvl1gbK7g|An Introduction to Moonbounce]] | At the extreme end of the hobby is Moonbounce, sometimes called EME for Earth-Moon-Earth. This is where every decibel matters and where DX flows even when the sun isn't jiggling the ionosphere. This presentation will explain the basics, and how we get over the path loss that occurs in transmissions that have to cover 750,000 kms and still be heard. |
-| 7th Feb 2026 | Tom Wardill M9TWM | [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=???????????|Beginning 3D Printing for Radio]] | Covering the basic of 'What is 3D printing?', 'What types of materials can I print?', 'What should I buy?', and 'Just how safe is this anyway?', Tom will cover a primer on the topic and hopefully inspire you to investigate why 3D printing is a perfect complement to your radio hobby. |
