This year, MSARS will not be entering Mills on the Air officially, but individual members will be activating a couple of local mills nonetheless.
GB0CHW will be used by Gavin G6DGK (with the Downland Radio Group) to activate Chailey Windmill, whilst myself M0XYF, Mervin M0WVE, Adrian M0TCD and a few others will be activating Jack & Jill Mills with the callsign GB0JJM.
Please support us by dropping by in person, or giving us a shout on the air. We'll be spending much of the time experimenting and testing our own projects, but we'll also be making a few contacts using various modes including FT8, FT4 and JS8 as well as SSB. For the Jack and Jill team, we will be posting updates on what we're up to, what bands and frequencies we're using etc. on the MSARS twitter feed here: https://twitter.com/MidSussexARS
Here's hoping the weather will be kind...
Update on Timings
Adrian M0TCD will be on-site from 'early' on Saturday 7th and I'll be in attendance from around 10:00 'till 14:00 or so.
On Sunday, Merv M0WVE and I will be swapping RF with the rest of the world from around 13:00 'till 17:00.
Come along and experience our rough-and-ready version of 'Mills'.

Thanks very much to Chris M7VJE for grabbing these photos on the night. I think they speak for themselves, so nothing much to add from me, other than quite a lot of junk was obviously auctioned, and many bargains were recycled. Thanks to all involved in making this event happen. As you can imagine, an awful lot of work goes in. We hope all the attendees enjoyed it.

I haven't had a chance to 'set this up' yet (it'll only need a few configuration tweaks) but it should be available for our next scheduled event, which at this stage looks to be next Wednesday nights GB3HY repeater net. I'll be posting the new link when I have it, and will change the link on the website too, so you'll always be able to find it in the future. No more 40 minute time limit for us!
Thanks to Alan and Stella for sorting this out.
Berni M0XYF.
UPDATE
The setup is now complete. I ended up making loads of little changes, so we'll sort out any minor inconveniences and glitches as we go.
The new link for all MSARS Zoom meetings is https://us06web.zoom.us/j/8414128865?pwd=NmNSamMxYWVHNWlZbk54OXVIUGIzQT09
I have updated the link on the right hand sidebar of the website. The old link will no longer work, so don't use it - or you'll be sitting alone in the dark wondering where everyone else is.

Dear members,
We will be in the main Starford Hall (upstairs) at Cyprus Hall.
We still require Runners to take the sold items to the public, and somebody to help myself in the kitchen.
The doors open at 18.30pm. Most of the setting up will be done, as Alan & I will have been there during the afternoon. The sale starts at 19.30pm.
Please make sure your unloved/unwanted items are brought along to this event for our auctioneers to sell.
We will be serving tea, coffee and home-made cakes, as well as a few burgers and hot-dogs.
The raffle table is also in need of any items you feel you could donate.
Remember that you will be able to pay for items via our contactless/Chip & PIN device when buying either food & drink or surplus equipment.
If you are able to help at this event in any way please contact me via
Regards
Stella
Hon Treasurer, MSARS

This Flex Radio Maestro screen capture comes from Phil G4UDU today. Despite the Germans on 21.345 MHz and the Over the Horizon Radar moving up and down, we had 7 of us on net today including Bob N4XAT and David WB1ED who copied us all including Rob and Russell so, never give up!
