 Things have been busy in the South West, with Marc MW0NXT and John G4OTJ having both been granted NoVs for a directional link between their nodes in Wenvoe, Wales and Farmborough, England. Kevin M0AHN has also applied for NoV for MB7NEX in Exmouth, and Jules G0NZO for MB7NSC on Bell Hill, Dorset. Things have been busy in the South West, with Marc MW0NXT and John G4OTJ having both been granted NoVs for a directional link between their nodes in Wenvoe, Wales and Farmborough, England.

-In the South East, Matthew G7HMV has been granted an NoV for MB7NHA in Harpenden on 144.950 and initial testing shows a good link to MB7NGP in East London and potentially 2E0SIP in Watford. It's also hoped it may link to Milton Keynes in the future. M0NCW's node near Aylesbury has been moved to 144.9375 to link GB7NMK in Milton Keynes and GB7WOD in Reading. Linking the two gives us an RF only path from Milton Keynes all the way to the Isle of Wight which is likely the furthest path since the original packet networks started to die out. +In the South East, Matthew G7HMV has been granted an NoV for MB7NHA in Harpenden on 144.950 and initial testing shows a good link to MB7NGP in East London and potentially 2E0SIP in Watford.

 In London, Szymon M0GZP recently raised his antenna and can now reach Matthew 2E0SIP in Watford. Simon M0GZP and Matthew 2E0SIP also presented a talk on packet radio to the Radio Society of Harrow which was well attended, and will hopefully inspire some more radio amateurs to start getting involved with packet in the local area. In London, Szymon M0GZP recently raised his antenna and can now reach Matthew 2E0SIP in Watford.
