British Inland Waterways on the Air 2026 (Unofficial MSARS Event)
Sunday 30 August 2026, 11:00 - 15:00
Hits : 2

PLEASE NOTE: This event IS NOT an official MSARS event, and will therefore not be covered by RSGB public liability insurance, and you therefore attend at your own risk. The station (GB6DGK) will be run privately by club member Berni M0XYF in memory of Gavin Keegan G6DGK.

Not sure where I'll be set up exactly, but I'll be in the main public car-parking field at Ardingly Reservoir. You'll see me. I'll be sporting a 10m fishing pole!

If you fancy joining me in person or on-air, then you are more than welcome. This year I'll be using the SES callsign GB6DGK to celebrate the life of Gavin, who sadly passed away last year. I'll probably be operating on 40m and 17m, but if it's pants on single sideband, I'll probably have a play on FT8/FT4, especially if the bands are really poor. I may post something on the cluster.

Ardingly Reservoir is also a TRIPLE POTA site, so you can find me on pota.app. Just type it into your web browser.

I won't be seriously trying to fill up the logbook, but I'll be having a bit of fun from 11:00am 'till 3:00pm.

Hopefully, it'll have some water in it by then, and I'll have washed the car with the new hose pipe I haven't been allowed to use yet.

73,

Berni M0XYF
