The Morse Phone can be used to get started with the Morse code. You can use him to practice, but you can also pair two or more Morse Phones and send messages to each other.

The Morse Phone is designed by Service Kring for Scouting JOTA & JOTI events.

It is a Morse beep that can be used standalone but also can be linked with other Morse Phones, after all, you communicate together! The Morse Phone is inspired by the Fuller phone, a bit of history.

The Fuller phone is a Morse telegraphy device that has been developed
during the first world war by major A.C. Fuller. In the years after that, the
Fuller phone is further developed and remained in use until after the second
world war. The ideas of A.C. Fuller were not new but he has managed to
make a device that could be applied in war situations and harder to
eavesdrop than the already existing telegraphy equipment.

The Morse Phone can be used in several ways:
Independent, as Morse sounder, the Morse Phone will give a beep if the key is pressed.
Linked to one or more other Morse Phones (or a real Fuller phone).

Pleased to report Graham Iles has taken the On Line exam and secured an Intermediate pass. Well done Graham!

Very pleased to report that four members sat their paper based Foundation Exam at the Club Wed evening 28th Aug and ALL have indicative passes! A credit to them and our lead trainer Paul (M0ZMB).

So congratulations to Oliver Pitt, Jane Sheppard, Malcolm Eachran & Michael Mills, well done!!

Some of the antennas used over the field weekend.

Members of TSGARC came and experimented with various antennas and radio setups over the bank holiday weekend. Some stayed all weekend and others were only for a single visit. A worthwhile and productive time for all who attended.
