JOINING THE CLUB – NEW MEMBERS
While most members are licensed amateur radio operators, any person who has a bona-fide interest in radio or electronics can apply to join the club
.

Paper applications may be posted to the secretary, or submitted in person to a committee member.
The committee will then vote on your application at their next meeting. The easiest way to join, is to attend a monthly committee meeting, introduce yourself and complete the paperwork.
If you are voted in, then the appropriate subscription must be paid within one month.

There is a tear-off form for new membership / renewal on the 2024 brochure. You can post the form, bring it with you to the club, or scan it and send it with an email to the club address – . The brochure can be downladed here –
